Selections from The Girl’s Own Paper, 1880-1907
Author: Terri Doughty
Publisher: Broadview Press
ISBN: 9781551115283
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
The Girl’s Own Paper, founded in 1880, both shaped and reflected tensions between traditional domestic ideologies of the period and New Woman values in the context of the figure of the New Girl. These selections from the journal demonstrate the efforts of its publisher (the Religious Tract Society) to combat the negative moral influence of sensational popular literature while at the same time addressing the desires of its audience for exciting reading material and information about topics mothers could not or would not discuss. Selected fiction gives a rich sense of the conventions and the domestic ideology of the time; the nonfiction prose ranges from essays on conduct and household management to articles on new opportunities in education and work.

Girls' Empire
Author: Short Books
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781906021177
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
For a girl these days, it may be fashionable to know how to encrypt text messages, design a webpage, and compile the ultimate playlist. But what about the things that really matter, the sort of things that mattered to girls back in 1903: how to get the best out of your carrier pigeon, how to avoid the evils of excessive tea drinking, and the pros and cons of cycling in a full-length skirt? The Girls' Empire, written at the dawn of the 20th century when the suffragette movement was in full swing, is a wonderfully evocative slice of history. With a mission to entertain, instruct, and inspire, it contains moral guidance, health tips, career advice, and much more. This new edition will prove amusing and poignant for modern readers, and many of its observations remain reassuringly relevant today.

The new novel by the celebrated author of The Sunday Wife chronicles the lives of a tight-knit group of lifelong friends.

There's Lanier Sanders, whose husband won custody of their children after he found out about her fling with a colleague.
