TY - JOUR PY - 2001// TI - Anatomy of a Massacre: Gender, Power, and Punishment in Revolutionary Paris JO - Violence against women A1 - Bosworth, Mary SP - 1101 EP - 1121 VL - 7 IS - 10 N2 - This article describes the massacre of 35 women in the Paris HÙpital de la SalpÍtriËre in September 1792. The killing of the women in the city's largest prison-hospital complex for women was a unique event in the French Revolution's history because it was the only all-female institution targeted during the September Massacres. Using archival documents, the author explores what the violence against women in SalpÍtriËre suggests about gender and punishment at the dawn of modernity.
