  • - Gender in European Towns, 1640-1830
     
    2 265,-

    This book, from a pan-European network of historians from twelve countries, examines the ways that the European urban experience was gendered over time and across borders. Situated in eighteenth-century urban culture, the chapters in this volume evaluate the economic activities and agency of women in these commercial communities. It addresses a number of questions which speak to how women specifically negotiated and articulated their relationship to the gendered urban economy. The book is an integrated collection of local studies, employing both quantitative and qualitative approaches, but with a very coherent approach. It is embedded in an urban / economic / gender approach which unites the chapters and which is drawn together by the editors in their introduction and afterword.

  • - White Women, Race, Liberalism and Empire in Rhodesia, 1950-1980
    av Kate (University of the Free State Law
    2 250,-

    This book argues that white women often held ambiguous, inconsistent and complicated attitudes towards issues such as race, liberalism, gender and empire, marking a significant departure from the current scholarship on women and empire, which has tended to situate them in ossified roles. In doing so, Gendering the Settler State argues for the importance of a more nuanced and fine-grained analysis of the role of white women in the colonial enterprise.

  • - Research, Representation, Production and Consumption

    Women have been important contributors to and readers of magazines since the development of the periodical press in the nineteenth century. By the mid-twentieth century, millions of women read the weeklies and monthlies that focused on supposedly "feminine concerns" of the home, family and appearance. In the decades that followed, feminist scholars criticized such publications as at best conservative and at worst regressive in their treatment of gender norms and ideals. However, this perspective obscures the heterogeneity of the magazine industry itself and womenΓÇÖs experiences of it, both as readers and as journalists. This collection explores such diversity, highlighting the differing and at times contradictory images and understandings of women in a range of magazines and womenΓÇÖs contributions to magazines in a number of contexts from late nineteenth century publications to twenty-first century titles in Britain, North America, continental Europe and Australia.

    This volume undertakes a comparative study of 19th- and 20th-century universities in Canada, the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland, where unequal gender relations commonly regulated the voice of women and their perpetuation as a marginal group of academic intellectuals. It uses a variety of sources and methods to examine the experiences of the women students and professors who inhabited, constructed, and reproduced social and intellectual worlds within that context, showing how women negotiated their subjectivities and challenged expected norms in particular ways and forms within¿and sometimes outside of¿the intransigent rules and expectations on campus.

    The media have played a significant role in the contested and changing social position of women in Britain since the 1900s.

This edited collection features tightly focused and historically contextualised case studies which showcase current research on women and media in Britain since the 1900s. The case studies explore media directed at a particularly female audience such as Woman¿s Hour, and magazines such as Vogue, Woman and Marie Claire.
