Pauline is the wife of a knight of the lesser nobility caught up in the events of the Fronde in Paris, 1648. She is a domestic presence in the background of a man whose gesta (campaign-cycle) and factional life took him from home with growing frequency.
In 1648 the court had left for Saint-Germain-en-Laye and the city was filled with warring factions.
