Les femmes dans la révolution batave : droits des femmes, droits du peuple
Les femmes rĂ©volutionnaires bataves ont peu fait couler d'encre. Les historiens ont nĂ©gligĂ© d'enregistrer leur prĂ©sence dans les fĂȘtes ou dans les sociĂ©tĂ©s politiques. Pourtant, tout comme le peuple, les femmes ont Ă©tĂ© politisĂ©es dĂšs la rĂ©volution des patriotes ; la rĂ©volution batave leur a concĂ©dĂ© une certaine importance, dans les cĂ©rĂ©monies et les fĂȘtes. Mais, comme en France, rares Ă©taient ceux qui envisageaient de leur confĂ©rer les mĂȘmes droits qu'aux hommes. La prĂ©sente Ă©tude fait le bilan des actions fĂ©minines dans les annĂ©es 1781-1798.Women in the Batavian Revolution: Rights of Women, Rights of the People.Little has been written about women in the Batavian revolution. Historians have neglected to record their presence in festivals or in the political societies. Yet, like the people themselves, women were politicized from the moment the patriots rose up.

Deux Hollandaises Ă TrĂ©voux (1788-1797) : voyage dâagrĂ©ment ou engagement politique ?
This article focuses on the ârevolutionary voyageâ of Elizabeth Wolff, nĂ©e Bekker (1738-1804) and her friend and companion Agatha Deken (1741-1804). These two Dutch women writers and patriots emigrated to France in 1788 shortly after the failure of the Dutch Patriot Revolution and spent their nine years of political exile in the little town of TrĂ©voux. Their letters and publications as well as local archives show their personal involvement in the French Revolution and suggest the existence of a transnational political network along Protestant lines to which they belonged. The proclamation of the Batavian Republic in 1795 inspired them to write a jubilant poem, but they only returned home a few months before the radical coup of January 1798. They immediately settled in the capital of the Republic, The Hague, and placed their pens at the service of the new regime. This unconditional commitment testifies that their years of exile in France had not lessened their political activism, but on the contrary had enhanced it, thus demonstrating a revolutionary citizenship irrespective of sex
Deux Hollandaises Ă TrĂ©voux (1788-1797) : voyage dâagrĂ©ment ou engagement politique ?
Cet article est consacrĂ© au âvoyage rĂ©volutionnaireâ dâElisabeth Wolff, nĂ©e Bekker (1738-1804) et de son amie et compagne, Agatha Deken (1741-1804). Les deux femmes, Ă©crivains nĂ©erlandaises et patriotes, qui, aprĂšs lâĂ©chec de la rĂ©volution patriote des Provinces-Unies, se rĂ©fugiĂšrent en France en 1788, oĂč elles passĂšrent plus de neuf ans en exil politique dans la petite ville de TrĂ©voux. Leurs lettres et publications et Ă©galement des documents dâarchives tĂ©moignent clairement de leur engagement rĂ©volutionnaire personnel. Faute de documents explicites, seuls apparaissent les contours des rĂ©seaux politiques transnationaux dans lesquels elles Ă©voluaient. La proclamation de la RĂ©publique batave de 1795 leur inspira un poĂšme enthousiaste, mais câest seulement Ă lâĂ©poque du coup dâĂtat radical de janvier 1798 quâelles dĂ©cidĂšrent de rentrer dans leur patrie. AussitĂŽt arrivĂ©es, elles sâĂ©tablirent au centre du pouvoir et mirent leurs Ă©crits au service du nouveau rĂ©gime. Cet engagement inconditionnel montre bien que leurs annĂ©es dâexil en France nâavaient pas diminuĂ© leur activisme rĂ©volutionnaire, mais lâavaient bel et bien accru. Toutes deux Ă©taient devenues des citoyennes Ă part entiĂšre.This article focuses on the ârevolutionary voyageâ of Elizabeth Wolff, nĂ©e Bekker (1738-1804) and her friend and companion Agatha Deken (1741-1804).

Forgotten Intersections. Wilhelmina Drucker, Early Feminism, and the Dutch-Belgian Connection
Aux Pays-Bas, Wilhelmina Drucker (1847-1925) est considĂ©rĂ©e comme une des fĂ©ministes les plus importantes de son temps. NĂ©anmoins, ses rapports avec le fĂ©minisme belge sont largement ignorĂ©s et, dans l'historiographie belge, sa vie et son Ćuvre restent presqu'inconnus.
En plus d'une esquisse détaillée de la vie de Drucker et de sa pensée féministe-socialiste, cet article présente également une analyse des recherches nouvelles sur les années 1890, l'époque du CongrÚs de Bruxelles de la Seconde Internationale, tout en soulignant l'importance des rapports entre Drucker et Marie Popelin, Emilie Claeys et Louis Frank. Ainsi l'article montre que, sans doute, Drucker a joué un rÎle décisif dans la création des premiers mouvements féministes belges.
En conclusion, l'attention est attirée vers quelques pistes de recherches prometteuses relatives aux rapports néerlando-belges ainsi qu'aux interdépendances historiques du libéralisme, socialisme et féminisme à la fin du XIXe siÚcle.Everard Myriam, Aerts Mieke, Mltzman Lee K.
