The Loves of Sundry Philosophers and Other Great Men
Author: Madame de Villedieu
Publisher: Edwin Mellen Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Klein's book provides the opportunity to read in English the innovative narratives of an illustrious woman author who played a prominent role on the literary scene in France during the reign of Louis XIV. Marie-Catherine de Desjardins de Villedieu produced over ten volumes of works that include plays, poetry, and narrative fictions. Today's critics attribute Villedieu with having created a new genre of literature, the nouvelle galante, in which the author recounts a series of gallant episodes, rather than the heroic actions so popular in the adventure stories of the first half of the 17th century.

Memoirs of the Life of Henriette-Sylvie de Moliere
Author: Madame de Villedieu
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226144216
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Known as Madame de Villedieu, Marie-Catherine Desjardins (ca. 1640-83) was a prolific writer who played an important role in the evolution of the early modern French novel. One of the earliest women to write for a living, she defied cultural convention by becoming an innovator and appealing to popular tastes through fiction, drama, and poetry. Memoirs of the Life of Henriette-Sylvie de Molière, a semi autobiographical novel, portrays an enterprising woman who writes the story of her life, a complex tale that runs counter to social expectations and novelistic conventions. A striking work, the story skillfully mixes real events from the author's life with fictional adventures. At a time when few women published, Villedieu's Memoirs is a significant achievement in creating a voice for the early modern woman writer. Produced while the French novel form was still in its infancy, it should be welcomed by any scholar of women's writing or the early development of the novel.
