French Women Writers
|
The ARTFL French Women Writers Project is a searchable database containing works by French women authors from the 16th to the 19th century. Currently, the Women Writers Project is separate from the main ARTFL database; eventually the texts here will be merged with the ARTFL database. This merge will more than double the holdings of texts by French women writers in ARTFL, adding more than 100 texts written by women both well known and non-canonical. After the merge, we will also change the search mechanisms of the ARTFL database so that users can search the database with gender as a criterion.

The French Women Writers Project is still provisional. This is the first release of the database and, consequently, there may be some problems with it. For known problems, see the errata page.
