-Recent research, on the feminocentrism of the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century French and English novel, on narratology or on the differences between female and male reading, has shown that not only is the literary discourse tied to issues of gender, but the metadiscourse is equally imbued with it; the ‘querelles des femmes’ were frequently intertwined with literary disputes. <br><br>+
