- Title
Subject to Dispute: Constructions of the Author in François Béroalde de Verville's Palais des curieux (1612).
- Authors
Butterworth, Emily
- Abstract
The author focuses on the authorial "je" in the books "Le Palais des curieux," by François Béroalde de Verville. She states that like Michel de Montaigne's "Essais," Verville's text portrays a strong authorial "je" that directs and sometimes misleads the reader's attention. She mentions that Verville's "je" is active, providing opinions, autobiographical anecdote, digressing and always making his presence felt.
