Fabricating Women: The Seamstresses of Old Regime France, 1675–1791
Clare Haru Crowston
In contrast with scholarship on women and gender in the modern period, the author asserts that the rise of the absolute state, with its centralising and unifying tendencies, could actually increase women's economic, social, and legal opportunities and allow them to thrive in corporate organisations such as the guild.
