The Hermaphrodite, the Effete and the Butch: Sexual and Gender Ambiguities in Nineteenth-Century French Narratives - French Studies of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries
Geraldine Crahay
During the July Monarchy (1830-1848), French writers such as Balzac, Gautier and Sand depicted characters who did not conform to gender expectations. This book investigates the historical conditions in which these protagonists were created and explores this time as a key period for the redefinition of gender identities.
