Abstract: This study presents the theme of the feminine boredom in the works Corinne (1807) by Madame de Staël and Indiana (1832) by George Sand. We will analyze the possible causes and consequences of taedium and why women (the female characters, the authors and woman in general) are more likely to suffer from it. This will enable to reflect on the female condition and role in the social, political and artistic spheres.
