- Description
- While the image of bourgeois Victorian women as 'angels in the house' isolated from the world in private domesticity has long been dismissed as an unrealistic ideal, women have remained marginalized in many recent accounts of the public culture of the middle class. This book redresses the balance and argues that women played an important role in the formation of the public identity of the Victorian middle class. Through their support for cultural and philanthropic associations and their engagement in political campaigns, women developed a civic identity, which for some informed their later demands for political rights.

- Description
- Love and eugenics in the late nineteenth century recontextualizes New Woman writers, demonstrating that they were as concerned with the questions of poverty, sickness, and health as they were with the changing role of women, the issue for which they are currently generally known and celebrated. Focusing on fiction and the press, and drawing on the papers and published work of Galton and other eugenists, this book reveals the cultural pervasiveness of eugenics and explores the intimate relations between early feminism and eugenics.

- Description
- Female philanthropy was at the heart of transformative thinking about society in the interwar period. In Britain, in the aftermath of the First World War, professionalization: the authority of the social sciences, mass democracy, internationalism and media sounded the future and the death knell of elite practices of benevolence. Female philanthropists reshaped personal models of charity into modern projects of social connectedness, and new forms of cultural and political encounter. The author connects the stories of four women: Evangeline Booth, Lettice Fisher, Emily Kinnaird and Muriel Paget.

- Met een gemanipuleerde foto van Margaret Thatcher die een vrouw van haar portemonnee berooft. Premier Thatcher stond bekend om haar harde economische beleid in Groot Brittannië. In 1984 kondigde zij aan dat alle mijnen in Groot Brittannië moesten sluiten. Zo'n 150.000 mijnwerkers gingen in staking. De vakbonden waren echter te arm om hun leden voldoende compensatie te bieden en de bijstandsuitkering werd door Thatcher verlaagd. Internationaal kwamen solidariteitsacties op gang, waarvan het Wales Gaarkeukenfonds een voorbeeld is.
