Literary and religious texts from the Early Modern era to Modernity – novels, plays, and letters as well as ego documents, philosophical writings, and visual material are the basis for this literary-historical analysis. The author focuses on the reconstruction of the gender relations and roles that can be found in the primary texts as well as on a critical analysis of the conditions for production and reception in a literary field that was fundamentally patriarchally structured. In doing so, she succeeds both in clearly illustrating to what extent gender is encoded as a structuring pattern in literary and religious texts and in showing the gap, which, due to the demarcation of female authorship and female writing, is still gaping in literary-historical research until today.
