Abstract

Summary: Women writers of the 17th century, with few exceptions, were no more than just a flash in the pan. Few of them lengthened his fame until the following century, being relegated to the pages of a history of literature that deigned to include them, and almost always highlighting the exceptionality of seeing a woman who could write. The second half of the 20th century, thanks to feminist demands and newer studies, has seen a renewed interest in these forgotten writers. In this work we would like to make an hypothesis about what might have been the cause of the resurgence of interest for these authors.
