Gendered Stereotypes and Female Entrepreneurship in Southern Europe, 1700-1900[electronic resource] /by Polly Thanailaki. - 1st ed. 2021. - XI, 236 p.online resource.

1. Introduction -- 2. Familiocracy in the Greek business elite class: Endogamy and other cultural traits -- 3. Women and economic input in independent Greece (19th to early 20th centuries) -- 4. Gendered Entrepreneurship and Cottage Industry of the Greek-speaking communities in the Ottoman Balkans -- 5. Women’s path to economic autonomy in Italy -- 6. Rural women’s economic contribution to agricultural work in Southern Europe -- 7. Female Entrepreneurship and Guilds in Southern Europe -- 8. Gendered prejudices and the economic setting in Romania and Bulgaria -- 9. Conclusions.

This book addresses issues that remain under-researched by feminist historians. They pertain to female economic contribution in specific geographical areas and countries such as Greece, Italy, a number of regions of France, Greek-speaking regions in the Ottoman-ruled Macedonia, and two countries in the Balkans: Romania and Bulgaria. Additionally, it compares and contrasts female economic agency in the above regions which is a field that hitherto lacks thorough study. Polly Thanailaki explores female contribution to the finances of their family and to the economy of their country and how they interlaced in a transnational historical setting, further exploring social norms and trading practices in these regions. The methodology is based on the study of original printed sources such as archives, newspapers, and journals of the period, along with secondary sources of literature. The book addresses the nexus of gender, economy, and society covering a broad spectrum of gender studies, economic history and social history in time and in geographic space.
