Société Fraternelle des Patriotes de l'un et l'autre sexe, Défenseurs de la Constitution

Members

Notes

Founded in October 1790 by Claude Dansard, a schoolmaster. Its goal was to provide a civic education for its members that would encourage their participation in revolutionary affairs. It met in an old library room in the Jacobin Club and may have evolved from the participation of the regular occupants of a special gallery allocated to women at the Jacobin Club meetings, which did not admit female members. Prominent members included Etta Palm d'Aelders, Pauline Léon, Anne-Josephe Théroigne de Méricourt, Jacques-René Hébert, Jean-Lambert Tallien and Antoine Merlin de Thionville.
