Best Answer

They did not only have one or two functions.

Women at the start of this period could work in monasteries, but were also a driving force behind the reformation later.

They worked as servants, spinsters, as members of guilds, tailors, shoemakers, embroiderers, washerwomen, brewers, bakers or midwives.

The ones that did not have a profession, were usually involved in the family business and farming, while also doing housework and raising children.

A few noble women became writers (the sixteenth century was a great time for female learning) and translators, while others took care of the estates or acted as ladies-in-waiting. And let's not forget a great queen came to the throne in 1558.
