The extracts contain written descriptions of sustenance activities performed by one or more individuals. These source texts have been transcribed and analyzed within the project Gender and Work (phase 3) at Uppsala University and have been selected with the aim of clarifying the context in which individuals and livelihood activities occur. The dataset contains (a) a list of activities described in the court records, with variables specifying who performed the activity, when and where it was performed, and under what circumstances, and (b) transcriptions of the cases in the court records from which the activities are extracted. Source texts and source-based variables have been registered faithfully to the letter primarily by Örjan Kardell and, in a few cases, by Karin Hassan Jansson, both researchers in the project Gender and Work. Quality control has been carried out by Jonas Lindström. The material is searchable in the database GaW: https://www.uu.se/forskning/gender-and-work Mon, 15 Jun 2026 13:05:59 GMT https://researchdata.se/en/catalogue/dataset/2026-122 https://researchdata.se/en/catalogue/dataset/2026-122 Uppsala University Örjan Kardell Karin Hassan Jansson
