文章讲解：

①Historian Sheilagh Ogilvie challenges the view that training by European craft guilds from 1560 to 1760 was necessary. ②Her main evidence, however, is based only on female employment in one guild. ③Like most other guilds, the Wildberg weaver’s guild banned women from becoming masters; however, it exempted master’s widow. ④Indeed, widows accounted for 14 percent of all masters. ⑤Ogilvie claims that these “untrained” widow prove “the irrelevance of training.” ⑥But Wildberg master-widows were not untrained for, as Ogilvie notes elsewhere, wives and children worked with masters; their training may have been informal, but it existed nevertheless. ⑦At least 80 percent of widows were married to masters for longer than the standard six-year apprenticeship; an unknown proportion of the remainder had grown up in weaving families.
