chained_bear commented on the word louisquatorzean
"... Perrault did not deviate from the original story line and did not spoil the earthiness and simplicity of the oral version with prettified details. He acted as a conteur doué for his own milieu, as if he were the Louisquatorzean equivalent of storytellers who squat around fires in Amazonia and New Guinea."
—Robert Darnton, The Great Cat Massacre, And Other Episodes in French Cultural History (New York: Vintage Books, 1984), 62
