From Jane Austin to Orly Castel-Bloom female (and male) writers tried to write women's initiation through the Bildungsroman. We will observe the transition of the concept of women's initiation from Austin's "Emma", through Emma Bovary, to the Israeli young women going through the process of initiation in novels by Katzir, Zeruya Shalev, and Orly Castel-Bloom.
