Description

The little-known writings that Erica Harth examines here reveal a remarkable chapter in the history of Western thought.

Drawing upon current theoretical work in gender studies, cultural history, and literary criticism, Harth looks at how women in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century France attempted to overcome gender barriers and participated in the shaping of rational discourse.
