During the Belle Epoque real novelists who wrote with originality, boldness and lucidity. Today famous or fallen into oblivion, sometimes hidden under a male pseudonym, they fashioned numerous figures of the opposite sex: father, husband, lover, son, man-object predator, patriarch, seducer, enemy, executioner , mentor, ... Prince Charming. This book testifies to the environment. Result of a series of studies with finesse conducted by an international team of specialists, it revives the "paper men" imagine past by nine women writers: Therese Bentzon, Colette, Louise-Marie Compain, Lucie Delarue-Mardrus Daniel Lesueur, Anna de Noailles, Georges Peyrebrune Rachilde and Marcelle Tinayre. This work invites the reader to discover how these authors transgressed subtly Panegyrists discourses of masculinity.
