Since her days as a university student, Nathalie Freidel has been fascinated by Madame de Sévigné, a 17th-century French writer known for her three-volume anthology of letters. Through Freidel’s research – including two books and a digital database of women’s letters – she has sought to redefine the perception of Sévigné from a mother figure to “a woman who built a literary career when it was not a given.”
Now Freidel, a professor of Languages and Literatures at Wilfrid Laurier University, is bringing Sévigné’s work off the page and into a museum for a special exhibit at the Musée Carnavalet in Paris. See the whole article by Nick Sinner here.
