This new anthology brings together excerpts from over one hundred
documents detailing women's experiences from the end of the
eighteenth century to the outbreak of the First World War. It looks
in detail at all aspects of life for women in Britain in this
period, including motherhood, marriage and domestic life, religion,
philanthropy and politics, work, education, the migration of Irish,
Jewish and Black and Asian women to Britain, women in the Empire,
and first wave feminism. This documentary history draws on a wide
range of sources including parliamentary reports, pamphlets,
newspapers and journals, novels, poetry and hymns and seminal texts
by activists in the women's movement and contains material
essential for students of British social history and the nineteenth
century. The selected writers include Mary Wollstonecraft, Harriet
Martineau, Elizabeth Gaskell, Hannah More, Mary Prince, Chartist
and radical women, Josephine Butler, Christabel Pankhurst and Queen
Victoria, among many others - authentic voices who illuminate this
period of history in their own words.
