Abstract:
The plot of Corinne (1807), Madame de Staël's masterpiece, contains the topos of a parent who refuses to allow his son to marry the woman he loves. This topos forms part of the letter in which Corinne tells her lover, Oswald, the story of her life. The following contribution will show that this topos is deliberately introduced by Corinne in order to manipulate Oswald's reaction. She is not merely the submissive victim of his father's will, nor a feminist heroine, hut a woman hero who, desperately but to no avail, rebels against a woman's destiny. In giving her principal character this valiant attitude, Madame de Staël has written a genuinely androgynous novel.
