This study explores the diverse representations of sexuality, eroticism, and gender as expressed in French and Francophone literary thought both past and present. From Françoise de Graffigny s epistolary 'refusal' of eroticism to the challenge of nineteenth-century notions of rape in the novels of Emile Zola, Victor Hugo, and Eugène Sue to desire and eroticism as social taboo in the surrealist works of Georges Bataille and Luis Buñuel its historical focus demonstrates that issues of sexuality, eroticism, and gender existed at the heart of France s literary tradition long before they became a staple in its universities. Taking a more contemporary view, it examines the notion of écriture féminine in such authors as Monique Wittig, Anne F. Garréta, Nina Bouraoui, Assia Djebar, and Luce Iragaray, and also challenges accusations of misogyny in the works of Michel Houellebecq.
