In Search of the New Woman: Middle-Class Women and Work in Britain 1870–1914
Sutherland, Gillian (University of Cambridge)
The 'New Women' of late nineteenth-century Britain were seen as defying conventions. Studying this phenomenon from its origins in the 1870s to the outbreak of the Great War, Gillian Sutherland examines whether women really had the economic freedom to challenge social norms relating to work, political action, love and marriage.
