(Coming soon: a piece about the Winkelvii at the Henley Gregatta section - which came in 11th among Muriel voters for the year's Best Cinematic Moment.)

Jarvis’s most recent book, Politics in the Marketplace: Work, Gender, and Citizenship in Revolutionary France (Oxford University Press, 2019) , integrates politics, economics, and gender to ask how Parisian market women invented notions of citizenship through everyday trade during the French Revolution.
