Our research is dedicated to the study of the feminine literature in venice at the end of the renaissance and at the beginning of the baroque period. We selected four writers' works whose names are : isabella cortese, moderata fonte, lucrezia marinella and arcangela tarabotti. We studied their writings with an historical porspect in order to witness the feminine condition within the italian ociety of thius time. In a stylistic prospect, our second purpose was to evaluate the influence of the litarary models and these writers' capacity to put their own touch, as women, into their writings. We could realize the existence of a thought about their status as women of letters and about the feminine condition in general. It results in a claiming message which is particularly modern.
Feminine condition and feminine culture in venice at the end of the renaissance and the beginning of the baroque period
Notre travail de recherche est consacre a l'etude de la litterature feminine a venise, a la fin de la renaissance et au debut de l'epoque baroque. Le corpus selectionne est constitue par les ouvrages de quatre auteurs qui se nomment isabella cortese, moderata fonte, lucrezia marinella et arcangela tarabotti. Nous avons etudie leurs ecrits dans une perspective historique, en tant que temoignages de la condition feminine dans la societe italienne de cette epoque et dans une perspective stylistique, afin d'evaluer l'influence des modeles litteraires et la capacite de ces femmes ecrivains a personnaliser leur ecriture. Nous avons pu constater la presence d'une reflexion sur leur etat de femmes de lettres et sur la condition feminine en general, reflexion qui aboutit, leplus souvent, a un discours de revendication particulierement moderne.
