Monsieur, pardon si je vous gêne un peu... 1844. Creator: Honore Daumier

Monsieur, pardon si je vous gene un peu... 1844. - Monsieur, pardon si je vous gene un peu...mais vous comprenez qu'ecrivant en ce moment un roman nouveau, je dois consulter une foule d'auteurs anciens!... (Le Monsieur a part.) Des auteurs anciens!...parbleu elle aurait bien du les consulter de leur vivant, car elle a du etre leur contemporaine!...'. Lady author: Monsieur, pardon me if I get in your way a little...but you understand, writing a new novel, I must consult a host of ancient authors!... (Man, aside:) Ancient authors!... By golly, she should have consulted them while they were alive, she must have been their contemporary!...'. 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. 13
