This article focuses on how the press constructed Louise Michel as a feminist figure at the beginning of the Third Republic, even though she refused to define herself as such. This feminist visibility of Louise Michel results from the involvement of politically opposed forces and reveals that celebrity builds a personality as the glorious or hateful incarnation of a system of values and ideas. The political qualification process of Louise Michel shows the rivalries in how feminism is defined and perceived.
