Madame du Deffand, “Salonnière” and Driving Force of the 18th Century Intellectual Society. Translation of the Portrait by De Fos
Main Article Content
Abstract
Women's literature written in the 18th century has been less studied and, as a consequence less disseminated, that the works of the following centuries. Moreover, the 18th century, which is a crucial period in the development of Western Europe, bears witness of Mme du Deffand's salon littéraire. This paper aims to revalue the importance of Marie de Vichy-Chamrond. Firstly, we offer a study on her character from a historical and literary perspective, and secondly we complement the approach to the “salonnière” with the translation into Spanish of the interesting portrait written by De Fos about Mme du Deffand.
