From erudite comedies to Spanish dramas of honor, from French gallant tragedies to the she-tragedies of the late 17th century, female audiences appear to have exerted a decisive influence on European dramatic production, which gave a major role to the theme of love and to female characters. Indeed, female spectators constituted a significant portion of the audience in 16th and 17th-century theaters.

But to what extent does early modern theatre truly address women?

This conference aims to examine in detail the relationships between English and French playwrights and their female audiences in order to shed light on the links between creation and reception and to better understand the role played by a still relatively little-known segment of the audience. The conference languages are French and English.
