Description:

Working with faculty and students in the departments of French & Italian and History, the Electronic Text Research Center has developed an initiative to digitize texts by women writers in Early Modern France. At present we focus on women writers of the 15th-17th centuries. Our early list has included Christine de Pizan, Diane de Poitiers, Louise Labé, Madeleine de Scudéry, Marguerite de Navarre, Marie de Gournay, and Pernette du Guillet; we also have a working list of 16 other women writers from the period.
