Recenzii

“Scholars of early-modern French literature interested in gender have long been waiting for this volume and it does not disappoint. Marked by Rothstein’s characteristic wry wit, expansive engagement with sources canonical and barely known, and distinctive account of early modern gender, the volume details the variety of ways in which the androgyne facilitated access to what she calls human plenitude.” (Marc Schachter, H-France Review, Vol. 17 (226), December, 2017)
“In this volume, Marian Rothstein builds on her earlier article-length investigations of the androgyne myth’s use in literary and political environments in early modern France. … Well written and documented, this work will become a standard for anyone interested in questions of gender in early modern France.” (Jeff Kendrick, French Studies, Vol. 70 (4), October, 2016)
