Hoes van Nancy K. Miller: French Dressing (ePUB)

French Dressing looks at the ancien régime”s scenarios of libertine seduction–unsafe sex and its consequences for women”s lives. It places the gender performances of male and female-authored novels in dialogue in order to recover the complexity of a century obsessed, as we are today, with writing and living plots of desire.

French

Dressing exposes the erotic anxieties behind a national culture of sexual self-display–French undressing.
