Messieurs, je viens offrir à votre journal... 1844. Creator: Honore Daumier
Messieurs, je viens offrir a votre journal... 1844. Messieurs, je viens offrir a votre journal, un roman-feuilleton qui, je crois, lui conviendra parfaitement!...il a pour titre Eloa, ou huit jours de bonheur intime....la premiere partie formera dix ou douze volumes....a la maniere d'Eugene Sue!...'. - Pardon madame!...mais ceci me parait effrayant!....a ce compte-la vos huit jours dureront trois ans!'. Female author: Gentlemen, I am offering your newspaper a serialised novel that I believe will suit it perfectly!...The title is Eloa, or eight days of intimate happiness....the first part consists of ten or twelve volumes....written in the manner of Eugene Sue!...'. Editor: I'm sorry Madam!...but this sounds very worrying!...by this calculation your eight days will last at least three years!'. Satirical criticism of bluestockings': women with interests beyond housework and childcare. Female authors were often depicted as mannish and ugly - the implication being that their intellectual output was just as objectionable as their looks. From Les Bas-bleus, no. 6
