Abstract

Right at the end of the eighteenth century, a famous poet, Ponce-Denis Écouchard Le Brun, denounced women writers and a literary dispute ensued. While it mobilized a number of authors, one poem stands out in accounts of the quarrel: Constance Pipelet’s “Épître aux femmes.” A study of the timeline shows that this was not in fact part of the original exchanges and that its central role is due on the one hand to a retrospective delineation of the events by a woman poet with a vested interest and, on the other, to its ambition and quality. The case poses several questions around authorial identity, gender-based judgments, the role of periodicals, and the literary construction of quarrels both as they occur and after they are over.
一个女人的话
就在十八世纪末,一位著名的诗人,庞塞-丹尼斯Écouchard勒布伦,谴责女性作家,随之而来的是一场文学纠纷。虽然动员了许多作家,但有一首诗在描述这场争吵中脱颖而出:Constance Pipelet的“Épître aux femmes”。对时间线的研究表明,这实际上并不是最初交流的一部分,它的核心作用一方面是由于一位具有既得利益的女诗人对事件的回顾性描述,另一方面是由于它的雄心和质量。该案件提出了几个问题,包括作者身份、基于性别的判断、期刊的角色,以及争吵发生时和结束后的文学建构。
