| Popis: |
Increasing attention has recently been given by feminist historians in relation to women’s presence in the economic setting as female self-employment and trading practices have formed recently the main topics for discussion. Female economic agency and artisanal guilds replaced the old traditional pattern that limited female sphere of activities only to the household. Women went out and worked. They were engaged in craftsmanship and they entered guilds, or they were organized in collective efforts and family consortiums. Their sound contribution—though silent—in the family finances became a real fact despite social prejudices encountered which often impeded economic progress. |
