During the eighteenth-century, at a time when secular and religious authors in France were questioning women’s efforts to read, a new literary genre emerged: conduct books written specifically for girls and unmarried young women. In this carefully researched and thoughtfully argued book, Professor Nadine B\u00e9renguier shares an in-depth analysis of this development, relating the objectives and ideals of these books to the contemporaneous Enlightenment concerns about improving education in order to reform society. Works by Anne-Th\u00e9r\u00e8se de Lambert, Madeleine de Puisieux, Jeanne Marie Leprince de Beaumont, Louise d’Epinay, Barth\u00e9l\u00e9my Graillard de Graville, Chevalier de Cerfvol, abb\u00e9 Joseph Reyre, Pierre-Louis Roederer, and Marie-Antoinette Lenoir take up a wide variety of topics and vary dramatically in tone. But they all share similar objectives: acquainting their young female readers with the moral and social rules of the world and ensuring their success at the next stage of their lives. While the authors regarded their texts as furthering the common good, they were also aware that they were likely to be controversial among those responsible for girls’ education. B\u00e9renguier’s sensitive readings highlight these tensions, as she offers readers a rare view of how conduct books were conceived, consumed, re-edited, memorialized, and sometimes forgotten. In the broadest sense, her study contributes to our understanding of how print culture in eighteenth-century France gave shape to a specific social subset of new readers: modern girls.<\/span><\/div>\n

Reviews<\/span><\/strong>: <\/span><\/div>\n
‘Nadine B\u00e9renguier analyzes diachronically a group of lesser-known and under-appreciated conduct books to paint a picture of the idealized girl and young mother, imagined by Enlightenment authors and an ever-expanding readership. Her book adds an important chapter to the history of women’s and gender studies in Europe and North America that will also appeal to those interested in the history of the book and its reception.’
