This book explores the fascinating ways in which two French photographic women's magazines of the early 1900s created a visually compelling female role model who could perfectly balance feminism, femininity, and that tricky combination of work and life that is still the subject of debates today.

Brings into relief a critical relationship between the female mind and body that is essential to understanding the discursive position of the turn-of-the-century woman writer. This book includes novels that confront this mind/body problem through a wide variety of styles and genres that challenge conventional fin-de-siecle notions of femininity.
