Marie-Jeanne Lhéritier (November 1664 – February 24, 1734) was an aristocratic French writer of the late 17th century, and a niece of Charles Perrault.[1]
She published three fairy tales early in her career. Although she wrote few thereafter, she marked the beginning of the fairy tale vogue among the précieuses.[2]
