Book Description
This work presents a series of pioneering studies which together constitute a reappraisal of our understanding of the relationship between gender and history. Chapters include discussions of: the positions of servants and wives in Victorian and Edwardian England; the relationship between home and community in English society; the interconnections between class and gender, and new reflections on the role of the concepts of the public and private in women’s history today.
