Описание:
Although other historians have viewed the suffrage movement as aimed at exclusively political ends, she argues that such a categorization ignores many of the most compelling reasons why thousands of middle and upper-class women risked ostracism, obloquy, and, often, physical harm in the pursuit of the right to vote and why their efforts met with such intense opposition. The alliance of respectable" middle-class women with prostitutes, the attack on marriage, and the suffragists' distrust of the medical profession are among the topics the author addresses. Drawing on hypotheses advanced by Michel Foucault, she asserts that feminists sought no less than the total transformation of the lives of women.

Описание: In 1917, women won the vote in New York State. Suffrage in the City explore how activists in New York City were instrumental in achieving this milestone. Santangelo demonstrates how Manhattan was more than just a stage for suffrage action: it was part of the drama.
Today's women have the right to vote, but the idea of it being any other way is so inconceivable and foreign to the average person in the developed world that it's hard to imagine things were so different just a century ago. In the grand scheme of things, a hundred years is little more than a minor episode, so it might as well have been yesterday. And, of course, that's if we're focusing exclusively on the United States, where women finally got the right to vote in 1920. Many other countries in the developed world took decades more to make this dream a reality. In many other places in the world, women are still excluded from the political process to at least some degree. This is a story of struggle and of the major progress that struggle can bring about.
Описание: With this first history of suffrage to look at contributions by domestic servants, Laura Schwartz brings a feminist perspective to labour history. Feminism and the Servant Problem offers a new understanding of the class politics of the suffrage movement, and challenges traditional notions of who made up the British working class.

Описание: Australia led the world in the achievement of woman’s suffrage and the nation’s cultural history reflects this ambitious and progressive atmosphere. The impressive achievements of suffrage feminists in Australian theatre, however, are an untold story, as is their contribution to the development of international women’s theatre of the time. A Splendid Adventure brings these experiences and experiments to light through a group biography exploring the theatrical careers of Katharine Susannah Prichard, Stella Miles Franklin, and Inez Isabel Bensusan. Chosen because of their expatriate involvement in the women’s movement, their international profile as enfranchised Australian women, and their exceptional contribution to both the development of Australian drama and international feminist theatre, these women embody the energies and passions of Australian suffrage playwrights. The biographies of these major figures are accompanied by the dramatic stories of the New Women playwrights, the theatrical endeavours of women university students, and a consideration of international feminist theatre on tour in Australia, including the work of migrant suffragette Adela Pankhurst. The volume also includes the full text of a play by each playwright. Australian suffrage playwrights emerge from this study as exceptional feminists, expatriates, and theatre workers, whose «splendid adventures» have considerable implications for international women’s theatre, feminist dramatic criticism, and Australian theatre historiography.
