The purpose of this paper on women thieves in the early modern period is to show what remains to be learnt from narrative sources. It starts from the conclusions of quantitative research on the topic to point out the limits of this approach and moves on to arguing that narrative sources such as the misogynist pamphlets of the time and rogue literature can provide insights into gender relations in the underworld. For instance, they can help us determine whether the world of thieves was innovative in its approach to gender roles. It concludes that this type of criminal behaviour did not empower women and that gender hierarchy was even stiffer in the criminal world than in the rest of society.Cet article se propose d’analyser l’apport des sour...
