I want to know the answer to the following question:
Which event destroyed the former patronage and corporatism of France and allowed women to participate in society?
All the background I'm provided with is that "While women were marginalized in the public culture of the Ancien Régime, the French Revolution destroyed the old cultural and economic restraints of patronage and corporatism (guilds), opening French society to female participation, particularly in the literary sphere.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
