AB - Poullin, a feminist thinker, writer, and linguist who advocated for gender equality under the influence of the Cartesian philosophy that was popular in 17th century Europe, is considered the most radical feminist theorist, a pioneer of modern feminism, a social egalitarian, and an early enlightened thinker. The purpose of this paper is to understand and examine the originality of Poullin’s thought and the diversity of the history of modern feminism by analyzing the view of gender equality and the theory of women’s education presented in the treatises «De l’Egalité des deux sexes» and «De l’Education des dames». Chapter 2 examines the ‘Women’s Debate(Querelle des femmes)’ of the 15th and 16th centuries that influenced Poulin’s feminist thought and the discourse on gender equality in 17th century Cartesianism; Chapter 3 deals with Poullin’s life and the influence of Cartesianism. Chapter 4 focuses on Poullin’s view of gender equality and the theory of women’s education presented in «De l’Egalité des deux sexes» and «De l’Education des dames».
