Il y a la belle Angélique qui n'en pouvait plus, Perrette et ses amants, Jean dont le retour n'est pas attendu ni même souhaité, les dames galantes, les maîtresses royales ; il y a monsieur de Montespan et sa calèche à cornes, des aventures sanglantes, joyeuses, terribles, tristes aussi. Les histoires d'amour finissent parfois mal, celles de l'adultère en apportent souvent la preuve. L'infidélité n'a pourtant pas été considérée ni réprimée de la même façon au cours de l'histoire. A la Cour par exemple, le roi se montre en majesté avec sa maîtresse sans craindre de scandaliser la bourgeoisie qui n'autorise aucun écart. Depuis la fin du Moyen Age, une législation sévère et inégalitaire pour la femme s'applique en effet à l'ensemble du royaume de France. Il faudra attendre la loi sur le divorce de 1884 pour que le déséquilibre sexuel s'estompe, et surtout le XXe siècle pour que la répression cesse... Mais ce que montre aussi l'historienne Agnès Walch, c'est la difficulté de nouer une relation conjugale solide lorsque les parents font pression, lorsque des problèmes d'argent surgissent ou que l'entente sexuelle ne peut être trouvée. Question posée à la condition féminine, à la conception du mariage d'amour, à la législation matrimoniale, l'inconstance conjugale parle de sexe, de passion, de haine, de provocation, de dérision, et au final fait écho à nos préoccupations contemporaines.

By 1931, Ben and Alice Edelson had been married for two decades and had seven children, but for years Alice had been having an affair with the married Jack Horwitz. On the night of 24 November, Ben, Alice, and Jack met at Edelson Jewellers to settle the thing. Words flew, a brawl erupted, and Jack was shot and killed. The tragedy marked the start of a sensational legal case that captured Ottawa headlines, with the prominent jeweller facing the gallows. Through a detailed examination of newspaper coverage, interviews with family and community members, and evocative archival photographs, Monda Halpern's Alice in Shandehland reconstructs a long-silenced murder case in Depression-era Canada. Halpern contends that despite his crime, Ben Edelson was the object of far less contempt than his adulterous wife whose shandeh - Yiddish for shame or disgrace - seemed indefensible. While Alice endured the censure of both the Jewish community and the courtroom, Ben's middle-class respectability and the betrayal he suffered earned him favoured standing and, ultimately, legal exoneration. Revealing the tensions around ethnicity, sexuality, gender, and class, Alice in Shandehland explores the divergent reputations of Ben and Alice Edelson within a growing but insular and tenuous Jewish community, and within a dominant culture that embraced male success and valour during the emasculating 1930s.
