The cottage industry of France enjoyed enormous growth from the mid-eighteenth to the mid-nineteenth century. Through an intensive analysis of the social and economic impact of the expansion of this female-dominated industry, Gay Gullickson broadens our understanding of the variety and complexity of proto-industrial regions and of the proto-industrial processes. Focusing on the village of Auffay, located in the pays de Caux, a thriving agricultural region, Gullickson recreates the experiences of the women and men who spun and wove for the urban putting-out merchants. Social analysis of local memoirs, government reports, notarial and judicial records, and village cahiers de doléances, enables Gullickson to offer a more nuanced and accurate view of the causes and consequences of the expansion of the cottage textile industry in the pre-factory era. Her 1987 study is further enhanced by a quantitative analysis based primarily on the reconstitution of the families of the 727 couples who married in Auffay between 1750 and 1850.

In dit boek analyseert de auteur de beeldvorming van vrouwen die deel uit maakte van de opstand gekend als de Parijse Commune. De rol van vrouwen in deze bloedige opstand was erg controversieel en shockeerde vele verslaggevers en bracht de legende van de petroleuses voort, vrouwen die beschuldigd werden van het in brand steken van de stad tijdens de slag waarmee de Commune beëindigd werd. De media berichtten over de wreedheid en woede van de vrouwen. De auteur onderzoekt de betekenis van de beelden die door journalisten, memoiresschrijvers en politieke verslaggevers gecreëerd werden en later uitgewerkt werden door hedendaagse historici en politieke denkers. De pétroleuse is de meeste beruchte figuur die uit de Commune ontstaan is, maar de literatuur beschrijft de Communardes ook in andere gedaantes als het onschuldige slachtoffer, de schandelijke redenaar, de amazonekrijger, de dienende engel en andere.
