Résumé
Claudie Lesselier, From the Virgin Mary to Joan of Arc : Images of Women on the Far Right The Far Right considers sex and gender to be natural facts forming the foundation of the social order and attempts to incorporate French women into its political project of returning to certain traditions and its defense of national "identity". To do this, the Far Right emphases the difficulties of women today in relation to their familial and maternal responsibilities. The Far Right legitimizes this discourse by making references to symbolic feminine figures and by using metaphors from the realm of the family and household. However, this appeal is limited by the fact that within its own ranks the Far Right offers only a subordinate role to women.
