This book addresses the inter-linked lives and fortunes of children
and women in the first two decades of the twentieth century in
England. This was a time of shifts in thinking and practice about
children's and women's status, lived lives and experiences. The
book provides a detailed explanation of how children experienced
home, neighbourhood and elementary school; as well as discussing
the impact of the women's movement, namely its suffrage and
socialist work. These two concerns are linked by the work women did
about and for children. Essentially, the book explores childhood
and womanhood; generation and gender; and socialism and feminism.
Using existing studies on women's work, and autobiographies and
interviews about childhood, Mayall argues that women played a large
part in re-thinking childhood as a special period in life, and
children as participants in learning and in politics. This book
will appeal to students and researchers in the fields of history,
education and sociology, particularly those interested in the
women's movement, and the history of childhood.
