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 first issue of the newspaper opens with an essay by Hubertine Auclert titled, "La Citoyenne," (The Woman Citizen), explaining the publication’s goal of attaining civil and political equality for women and men. Other articles address "Les femmes électeurs," (Women Voters), about women who attempt to vote, despite it being against the law; "Le divorce en Italie," (Divorce in Italy); "Les femmes d’Irlande," (Irish Women), lauding the Women’s Agrarian League’s revolutionary activism against landlords; and "Les femmes au Niger," (Women of Niger), written by the anonymous "A traveler to Niger," which describes how the indigenous women of this French colony travel alone by river, even when nursing a baby.

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, Hubertine Auclert wrote the article, “Reponse d’un député” (A Deputy’s Response”), about the state of the women’s suffrage struggle in France, England and the United States. A short piece titled “Tahiti,” in the “Exterieur” column, reported celebrations as Tahiti officially became a French colony. “La terreur du mari” (“The Terror of the Husband”) strongly critiqued women’s lack of rights and recourse under the Napoleonic Code’s marital laws. The brief article, “La fête de la mort en Australie” (“The Celebration of Death in Australia”), by the writer Léo Quesnel, explained the silent dance that women performs when a person dies. “Les Eunuques Blancs” (“The White Eunuchs”), penned by Draigu, the pseudonym of Léon Girard, a writer and one of Auclert’s supporters and financial backers, compared legal and customary means of controlling women in Turkey and in France. Draigu often wrote about women beyond the metropole, using the pseudonyms Draigu or Camille. He stated that he prefers the honesty of polygamy to the hypocrisy of France’s monogamy.

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, citing several articles of the civil code that subjected women to their husband’s will, Auclert compares married women to slaves. She asserts that if young women taking marital vows understood what a “trap” they were entering, they would not move into a “conjugal prison.” Another article discusses an insurrection in Algeria that was spreading across North Africa. 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, Auclert calls for women to be allowed service as military nurses, who are much needed now to care for soldiers in Africa, those wounded in battle in Algeria and those felled by fever in Senegal. Women could not then be deprived of political rights on grounds of failure to perform military service. In another article, she complains that unlike other institutions of the Old Regime, laws governing marital property remain as autocratic as before 1789. Abstract created by Marilyn J. Boxer.

In “Les femmes d’un Prophète” (“The Wives of a Prophet”), Antonin Lévrier (Auclert’s romantic partner and future husband, and a regular contributor to La Citoyenne) wrote of Mohammed’s (“Mahomet”) life, death, and wives, and about the cities of Mecca (“La Mecque”) and Medina (“Médine”). “Les grands dangers qui menacent la société: L’émancipation des femmes,” (“The Great Dangers Menacing Society: Women’s Emancipation”) satirized men’s fears of women’s emancipation.
