The Leroy Henry Case
Beyond ‘Crisis’ in Understanding Gender Transformation
Since the late 1980s, historians have described certain eras as marked by ‘crisis’ in the production of gender norms. At the outset, the concept of ‘gender crisis’ proved useful for understanding changes in normative cultural systems. The rhetorical trope of crisis distinguished key turning points in the construction of gender and helped to shape a coherent narrative centred on moments of breakdown and reconstruction. Unfortunately, however, the …
The Price of Discretion
LEADING the 29th Infantry Division across Brittany to liberate France, the American general Charles Gerhardt decided that his boys needed sex.So he instructed his chief of staff to start a house of prostitution. 1 The task went to the St. Renan office of Civil Affairs, the military section assigned to address the needs of

The Silver Foxhole
As the “brothel of Europe,” Paris became the favored destination of GIs on leave in 1944–45. The entry of the Americans into Paris transformed sexual commerce, leading to the downfall of the legal regulation of prostitution, ironically because the soldiers so sharply raised the demand for sexual labor. As the legal system broke down under the weight of demand, prostitution became chaotic and unprofessional, and prostitutes were left poor and unpr…
Wartime Flânerie
This essay reviews an exhibition of André Zucca's photographs titled "Les Parisiens sous l'Occupation," which caused an uproar when it opened in March 2008 at the Musée de la Bibliothèque historique de la ville de Paris. Not surprisingly, the controversy centered on the collaborationist past of Zucca, a photographer for the Nazi wartime periodical Signal. Because Zucca chose to photograph the sunnier side of life in wartime Paris, the exhibition …
De quelques synthèses récentes sur l’histoire des femmes européennes
Rédiger une synthèse sur un domaine comme l’histoire des femmes européennes est une tâche quelque peu perverse. Vous ne disposez d’aucun modèle historiographique sur lequel compter, si ce n’est celui rejeté pour son oubli de la moitié de l’humanité. Vous devez assimiler une littérature très abondante, pour finalement l’omettre par manque de place. On attend de vous que vous créiez un récit tout en demeurant douloureusement conscient du caractère …
Amériques métisses
La photo du GI viril
L'image d'un GI américain extatique entouré de femmes françaises en pleine adoration est devenue une icône de la libération de l'Europe en 1944. Ce type d'image est si fortement inscrit dans la mémoire américaine qu'il fonctionne comme une évocation des guerres « justes » du passé. Cependant la photo du GI contribue à la production d'une illusion. Non seulement elle nie certaines vérités concernant la Libération, mais elle neutralise des tensions…

Un siecle d'antifeminisme
Civilization without Sexes
Copie subversive
En décembre 1897, la journaliste Marguerite Durand a fondé le journal La Fronde. Conçu d'après les quotidiens de masse de l'époque, La Fronde embrassait les domaines de la politique, des sports et de la haute finance. Mais le journal se distinguait plus particulièrement des autres quotidiens par le fait que la publication, la rédaction et aussi la typographie étaient exclusivement faites par des femmes. Dans leur effort d'imiter un quotidien bour…

Civilization Without Sexes
In the decade following World War I, newly blurred boundaries between male and female created fears among the French that theirs was becoming a civilization without sexes. This new gender confusion became a central metaphor for the War's impact on French culture and led to a marked increase in public debate concerning female identity and woman's proper role. Mary Louise Roberts examines how, in these debates, French society came to grips with the…

Disruptive Acts
In fin-de-siecle France, politics were in an uproar, and gender roles blurred as never before. Into this maelstrom stepped the women, a group of primarily urban middle-class French women who became the objects of intense public scrutiny. Some remained single, some entered nontraditional marriages, and some took up the professions of medicine and law, journalism and teaching. All of them challenged traditional notions of womanhood by living unconv…
