| Sumario: | Abstract: In this article we propose the study of Pierre Carlet de Chamblain de Marivaux’s “L’île des esclaves” (1725). This French novelist and dramatist wrote numerous comedies analyzing the stages of love and the fragility of feelings and amorous desire; but a further study shows a “revolutionary” ideology. In this retro-chro - notope Marivaux attacks slavery and invites us to consider the ethics of our choices and ac - tions. If today slavery is one of the things that everyone agrees is unethical, in the eighteenth century this trade made up about de half of Eu - rope’s income, and Marivaux’s arguments were not so easy to accept. |
