The Constantinian Women During The Ottoman Era

Abstract

Abstract: The study attempts to shed light on the situation of women in Algeria, specifically the women of Constantine in the Ottoman era. As women are prone to duality, it is challenging to discuss them in isolation from men. Since women were involved in many aspects of the society, sometimes her responsibilities went beyond the house chores and children. The researcher encounters a lack of historical data despite the topic's significance. Writings on the past often neglect women due to strict ban and extreme conservatism. Hence, the researcher focused on the women of Algiers Eyalet, namely those of Beylikof the East(Constantine1 ). -Was her role limited to managing the household and raising children? -Was the women of Constantine educated? - What was her role in the economic field? -Did women have a political role and influence?
