La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. In this issue, Auclert praises the attorney general for joining women in protesting the inequity of the double standard of punishment for adultery whereby guilty women could be imprisoned for up to two years while men who committed the crime even in the conjugal home merely paid a fine. She also addresses directly the president of the ministerial council, asking that when two newly created ministries were staffed that positions be granted to women in proportion to their share of the population. Abstract created by Marilyn J. Boxer.

Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. In this issue, Antonin Lévrier (Auclert’s romantic partner and future husband, and a regular contributor to La Citoyenne) wrote in “Les ouvrières en chaussures” (“Women Shoe Workers”) of the difficult working conditions and low pay of women shoe workers. “Liberté” reports the police dispersion of several hundred people commemorating the anniversary of the death of Auguste Blanqui, and the subsequent trial and unjust conviction of two female participants: Louise Michel and Madame Poirier. “Siam” discussed the lives of the wife and concubines of the King of Siam (modern day Thailand).

La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. In this issue, Auclert takes on the resistance by typographers to the entrance of women into their profession. While accepting foreign men who work for less than union wages, they refuse women, including spinsters, widows and poor wives who must work for their living. Other articles deal with the benefits of international alliances through marriage and courses on anthropological perspectives comparing men and women. Abstract created by Marilyn J. Boxer.

In this issue, Auclert calls for reform of the law that requires wives, even when separated, to obtain the consent of their husbands before undertaking any civil action. Other articles call for opening positions as inspectors in butcheries to women, discuss a play by Alexandre Dumas, fils on male adultery, and report on a Senate discussion of reform of the law on the legal separation of spouses.

La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. This issue includes the article, “Il y a cent ans” (“One Hundred Years Ago”), by Maria Martin, the editor who replaced Hubertine Auclert. Martin marked the beginning of the centenary year of the French Revolution. She recalled women’s significant role in the revolution and their subsequent disenfranchisement. She noted that in 1889 men would finally recognize that for the word equality to have real meaning, women must be enfranchised. In “Voile et Viol” (“Veil and Rape”), Hubertine Auclert criticized Arab practices of child marriage, which she argued allows the rape of young girls. She condemned the French government for allowing its perpetuation. The piece, “Dernier épreuve!” (“Last Ordeal!”), castigated the government for not introducing the budget reform it had long promised. The article, “Exposition de travail féminine” (“Exposition of Women’s Work”), reported on this successful event held in England. The piece, “Les femmes avocats” (“Women Attorneys”), criticized the Belgian court that refused the request of Mlle. (Marie) Popelin to take the oath necessary to practice law. Of note, Popelin was the first female lawyer in Belgium.
