- W4328003859 abstract "Women’s historians of the medieval through to the modern period have observed the sizeable difference between the money wages received by women and men, which could range from as little as one-third to one-half. This discrepancy, some of them have concluded, indicates that women’s wages were the product of custom and not equality in the labour market. Furthermore, some historians see such disparity as arising from women’s position in the family, which places them as dependent rather than as fully independent economic agents. The role of custom in determining wage levels is difficult to ascertain with any precision, given that it is not always clear what other factors may have contributed at different times and locations. Woodward has described custom as ‘that great stand-by of the social historian and frequently invoked explanation for all that is difficult to understand’. However, his comments with regard to women’s wages still stress the role of custom. ‘The low rates of pay given to most women in the early modern period were rooted in convictions – underscored by biblical authority – about their physical, economic and social, intellectual and political inferiority… which has characterised English society into the present century.’ Sharpe, in her study of working women in the south of England, concluded that for the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries women’s wages contained both a customary and a market element." @default.
