Show moreThe emergence of early feminism through the printed word — journals, magazines, pamphlets — allowed women’s political voices to be heard and for their cause to be taken with seriousness, whether positively or negatively, by French society. Women’s continuous progress in all aspects, social, political, economic, can be attributed to the collective efforts of early feminists. This research looks at women’s social roles and struggles in France in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and how their restricted condition inspired the early feminist movement. I write and compare two prominent feminists, Eugénie Niboyet, whose voice has been forgotten and whose contributions to the feminist press are scarcely written about, and Simone de Beauvoir, who is considered by many one of the most important feminists and whose works and legacy are widely studied and talked about in the academic field of women’s studies. I divide this research into four sections: the historical context of nineteenth century France and women, Eugénie Niboyet’s life and feminist journalism, the historical context of 20th century France and women, and Simone de Beauvoir’s life and feminist journalism.
