Abstract

The purpose of this article is the analysis of the little-known influence and the development of the Saint-Simonians and their idea of the transformation of women in Egypt. My work is based on their texts, and especially on the study of their central figure, Suzanne Voilquin, and her autobiographical work, without forgetting the work of Clorinde Rogé, Cécile Fournel and Agarithe Caussidère.
