Summary "Les Parisiennes d'à présent" by Georges Montorgueil is a social commentary written in the late 19th century. This work reflects on the evolving roles and perceptions of women in Parisian society during a pivotal time of feminist awakening and social change. The narrative delves into the daily lives, ambitions, and societal challenges faced by women, depicting a rich tapestry of characters as they navigate their desires and assert their rights. The opening of the text introduces a variety of female experiences against the backdrop of Paris in the years 1896-97, a period marked by significant strides toward women's emancipation. It highlights a feminist awakening as many women demand a say in the laws governing their lives, deeply questioning societal norms and the expectations placed upon them. With lively anecdotes and observations, the text sets the tone for exploring key events such as women's rights movements, social gatherings, and evolving personal styles, providing insights into how these changes resonate in both personal and communal spheres.
