The querelle des femmes was a debate over the condition of women in
society lasting four centuries and characteristically involved
charges against female vice, folly, corruption, incontinence and
lasciviousness, countered by pro-women defences and lists of
exemplary women. The texts in these two volumes range from
broadside parliamentary petitions to verse satire, from sermons to
philosophical essays, from political diatribes to marital advice.
The defences all respond to attacks on women, and although none
argues for women's citizenship or social equality, many claim an
original or spiritual equality, and blame custom and male
corruption for female subjection. The volumes are arranged into
five sections covering Politics, Preaching and Silence, Sexuality,
Marriage and Two Contrapuntal Defences.
