Girls learn about "femininity" from childhood onwards, first
through their relationships in the family, and later from their
teachers and peers. Using sources which vary from diaries to
Inspector's reports, this book studies the socialization of middle-
and working-class girls in late Victorian and early-Edwardian
England. It traces the ways in which schooling at all social levels
at this time tended to reinforce lessons in the sexual division of
labour and patterns of authority between men and women, which girls
had already learned at home. Considering the social anxieties that
helped to shape the curriculum offered to working-class girls
through the period 1870-1920, the book goes on to focus on the
emergence of a social psychology of adolescent girlhood in the
early-twentieth century and finally, examines the relationship
between feminism and girls' education.
