This book examines the experience of women munitions workers in Britain during WW1.
This exciting 2001 collection on a movement in urban archaeology investigates the historical archaeology of urban slums. The material that is dug up - broken dinner plates, glass grog bottles, and innumerable tonnes of building debris, nails and plaster samples - will not quickly find its way into museum collections. But, properly interpreted, it yields evidence of lives and communities that have left little in the way of written records. Including eleven case studies, five on cities in the United States and one each on London and Sheffield, and futher chapters on Cape Town, Sydney, Melbourne and Quebec City, it maps out a new field, which will attract the attention of a range of students and scholars outside archaeology, in particular historical sociologists and historians.
Explores networks of lawyers, legislators and litigators, and how they shape legal development in Britain and the world.
First published in 1982, D. H. Lawrence and Feminism discusses Lawrence’s work by examining it in relation to aspects of women’s history and the development of feminism. Two different modes of pre-war feminism which provide important themes in Lawrence’s early writings are examined in the opening chapters. The central chapters deal with the war, both as a catalyst for major changes in the position of women and as a point of no return in the development of Lawrence’s work. A final chapter looks at the way in which Lawrence used women as collaborator, and their writing as source material. This book will be of interest to students of literature, women’s studies and history.
