Among the best-known and most prolific French women writers of the sixteenth century, Madeleine (1520?87) and Catherine (1542?87) des Roches were celebrated not only for their uncommonly strong mother-daughter bond but also for their bold assertion of poetic authority for women in the realm of belles lettres.
