Focusing on postmodern theory, this book examines how eighteenth-century women's literature employs quixote narratives to challenge the notion of objective reality. It argues that rather than purging internalized fictions, these texts highlight how our perceptions are shaped by the narratives we engage with. Through this lens, the work reveals the intricate relationship between fiction and reality in women's writing of the period.
