“An Inner Revolution Of The Japanese Women”: The Rose of Versailles As Feminist Historical Fiction
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/8e21f5b25dc88b23b0e73a790587fabe/b0cdaf0cc23f804a-4a/s540x810/0c6e178f703db33b94e2830e30a12d057ac7f44a.jpg)
It’s not an exaggeration to say that Ikeda Riyoko’s The Rose of Versailles is one of the most influential shoujo manga of all time. The18 volume historical fiction retells the story of the French Revolution through the eyes of a number of female protagonists, including Marie Antoinette and the fictionalized character, Lady Oscar. Many shoujo manga historians consider it to be a foundational text in the medium and Ikeda is often credited for popularizing the sumptuous linework and stylistic expressions which shoujo manga is best known for today.
Unfortunately, shoujo manga—like most media targeted towards women and girls—is often dismissed as frivolous and apolitical, which means that Rose of Versailles is often overlooked as a work of feminist historical fiction. However, Rose of Versailles is actually remarkably well-researched and it’s clear that Ikeda was dedicated to educating her readers about the history of the French Revolution by centering women in her story. Similarly to English-language commercial successes like Titanic and Hamilton, the Rose of Versailles uses the framing of genre fiction to allow modern audiences to connect with history. The Rose of Versailles makes the argument that women’s lives and the romance genre can be radical and revolutionary—and, in fact, they were always central to revolutionary movements.

Doodle of Oscar and Andre from Rose of Versailles, inspired by a lot of the fan art bc of the film coming out.
Trying to capture the dreamy quality of artworks I’ve liked lately, like Atomoon’s sketches…but I fear that I don’t have their sensibilities.
