metadata.value: The Renaissance era gave birth to a new phenomenon in the European intellectual culture —
  the phenomenon of the cabinet of curiosities. Simultaneously, a new genre of the same name —
  the genre of cabinet — emerged in the Renaissance literature. Though not too popular, it
  assumed different forms under the pen of different authors. In France its usage was mostly
  connected with the erudite intellectual movement that had been formed during the reign of
  Francis I and flourished in the second half of the sixteenth and the first half of the seventeenth
  centuries. Interesting variants of the genre were provided by two prominent authors of the
  epoch — an Arras clergyman Guillaume Gazet (1554–1612) and the future French royal
  historiographer André Duchesne (1584–1640). Despite the difference between their social
  status and professions, both Gazet and Duchesne belonged to the French erudite movement.
  Having practically identical titles, “Cabinet of ladies” (“Cabinet des dames”), their works were
  published almost concurrently at the beginning of the seventeenth century and demonstrate
  two patterns of using the genre in the erudite intellectual circle. One of these patterns may
  be characterized as pure erudite, or antiquarian; the other — as ethical, or moralistic. The
  peculiar use of the genre of cabinet in the French intellectual circles enables to emphasize
  certain distinguishing features of the French erudite movement in general, as well as to outline
  the specific features of the intellectual life of the French society in the Early Modern epoch.
