Abstract (English):: The title and parts of this text have been inspired by the epistolary novel Les liaisons dangereuses by Pierre Choderlos de Lachlos, which can be considered to be an exploration of the ironies of the human condition. The exchange of epistles is between Dr. Alberto Golding and Dr. Manman Touchstone, names inspired by alchemy. Golding is good like gold but malleable; Touchstone was used to test the purity of gold or silver and, in a figurative manner, to ascertain if something or someone is genuine. Besides some criticism of the academia, the fundamental theme of these epistles is antifeminism in the Middle Ages, making references to some contemporary situations. In addition to the writings that reveal misogyny, there is an analysis of fourteenth-century poems on Melusine, a beautiful woman who metamorphoses as a serpent. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
