This doctoral project will explore the ways seventeenth century alewives negotiated cultural stereotypes to effectively run key institutions in their communities. Framed by these stereotypes, it will examine the extent to which ale-selling was a gendered experience. For instance, what were the risks and rewards of selling ale, and how did this differ from the male experience? The project will seek to unearth the ways an alewife's occupational identity might affect her personal relationships with male patrons and their wives, as well as the other men and women in the rural community. Did they, as Wade's Reformation implored, 'take her not for a friend'? In small communities where reputation reined and social alliances had the power to send one to (or save one from) the gallows, how might this have affected an aleseller's lifestyle? Such questions have the potential to be informative beyond their immediate remit: as ale-selling was a mainstream occupation with practitioners of varying wealth, this doctoral project will ultimately serve as a case study that can inform wider discussions on women's work and social standingin the seventeenth century.

这个博士项目将探索17世纪的alewives如何协商文化刻板印象，以有效地管理其社区的关键机构。在这些刻板印象的框架下，它将研究啤酒销售在多大程度上是一种性别体验。例如，销售啤酒的风险和回报是什么，这与男性的经历有何不同？该项目将试图揭示alewife的职业身份可能会如何影响她与男性赞助人及其妻子以及农村社区其他男女的个人关系。他们是否像韦德的宗教改革所恳求的那样，“不把她当作朋友” ？在小社区里，名声是受控制的，社会联盟有能力把一个人送上绞刑架（或从绞刑架中拯救一个人），这对卖家的生活方式有什么影响？这些问题有可能提供超出其直接职权范围的信息：因为啤酒销售是一种主流职业，从业人员的财富各不相同，这个博士项目最终将作为一个案例研究，可以为17世纪妇女的工作和社会地位的更广泛讨论提供信息。
