003 Jeanne Julie Éléonore de Lespinasse

At least as of August 15, 2018, the Wikipedia entry on French Enlightenment salonnière Jeanne Julie Éléonore de Lespinasse does not include -- among its list of fictional treatments -- her extended appearance in Andrew Crumey's 1996 novel D'Alembert's Principle.

However, I do have to credit the comprehensiveness of the Wikipedia editors with this: Crumey's novel does appear on the D'Alembert page.
