Description

Elizabeth Goldsmith's scholarly examination explores how French women in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries navigated the publication of their private life stories, transforming personal narratives into printed works. Drawing on her earlier research into conversation, epistolary writing, and the female voice in literature, Goldsmith investigates the motivations, decisions, and strategies these pioneering women employed when choosing to write about themselves. The study delves into the practical challenges of getting stories circulated and printed during an era when publishing presented significant social risks. Goldsmith analyses how these women defended themselves against threats to personal reputation and credibility that accompanied public disclosure of intimate life experiences. This work forms part of the Women and Gender in the Early Modern World series, providing essential historical context for understanding how female authors claimed authority over their own narratives and reshaped early modern literary culture through autobiographical writing.
