The Single Homemaker and Material Culture in the Long Eighteenth
Century represents a new synthesis of gender history and material
culture studies. It seeks to analyse the lives and cultural
expression of single men and women from 1650 to 1850 within the
main focus of domestic activity, the home. Whilst there is much
scholarly interest in singleness and a raft of literature on the
construction and apprehension of the home, no other book has sought
to bring these discrete studies together. Similarly, scholarly work
has been limited in evaluating gendered consumption practices
during the long eighteenth century because of an emphasis on the
homes of families. Analysing the practices of single people
emphasises the differences, but also amplifies the similarities, in
their strategies of domestic life.
