Review

"While the 18th century was a time of great social and political upheavals in Europe, the lives of most women—poor women—were little affected by these changes. Nonetheless, suggests Hurl-Eamon (History, Trent University), the century saw the begins of important debates over the status of women, and some middle-class and upper class women were

able to move outside of traditional women's roles. In this book, the author looks at women across Europe and across classes, examining their lives in terms of their roles in family, work, politics, law, religion, arts and sciences, and war."

Book Description

Women's lives in 18th-century Europe were not as predictable as one might expect. Freed Caribbean slave Rebecca Protten lived in Europe and Africa and held positions of spiritual authority over high-born, white women as a deaconess in the Pietist religious sect. Mary Lacy dressed as a man, enlisted in the British Navy, and became a successful shipwright, writing of her experiences in 1773.
