Abstract :
This contribution offers a review of the development of gender studies since 1973 in the field of eighteenth-century Dutch literature, and calls for a further development of the use of (male and female) gender as a category in the analysis of historical texts. A general problem, however, continues to be the special position of women writers within the larger literary field, and their preference (often out of sheer necessity) for certain genres.
