  Abstract:  Marguerite Yourcenar or is writing masculine? Marguerite Yourcenar was the first woman to become member of the French Academy on March 6, 1980. Given the genuine value of Yourcenar’s work, this decision is not surprising. It is, however, shocking how this decision was justified: she was a woman-writer who had the artistic force of a male-writer! Using Yourcenar’s Mémoires d’Hadrien, we have attempted at finding out what this means. 

Keywords: literature, novel, writer, character, Roman emperor, man, woman, humanity, history.
