Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. A very clean copy which feels unread. This comprehensive analysis of gender in the working-class New Zealand suburbs of Dunedin illustrates the ideological changes that became manifest in the period from 1893, when New Zealand became the first country to grant suffrage to women, to 1940. Quantitative and qualitative data on work, education, consumption, leisure, poverty, mobility, transportation, health, religion, and marriage in this community offer insight into the changing gender roles during this time. This major contribution to gender studies research considers the impact of sociology, urban planning, and geography in societal change.…

Women in history provides some answers to this question -- not all the ans wers, for the history of women is still one of the least researched parts of our past. But these ten essays make a major contribution to an exciting new field o f historical inquiry . Women in history looks at attitudes towards female sexu ality in the nineteenth century, at prostitution and the Contagious Diseases Act , at the feminist debate in the 1870s, and why women won the vote, at the educat ion system and the welfare system as both affected women, at the early abortion debate and changes in childbirth . -- Back cover.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 434 pages. In 1893 the women of southern Dunedin supported the campaign for female suffr age far more vigorously than women in any other city in the country. Change was in the air. In southern Dunedin as in most of the Western world, transformations in femininity and masculinity both shaped and were shaped by the era of moderni ty. This book, the product of five years' work by an interdisciplinary group of scholars, examines gender in a particular 'place': the suburbs of southern Duned in, which were in many respects typical of Western societies, but also relativel y predisposed towards gender change. The authors address gender through a series of 'sites': work, education, consumption, leisure, poverty, mobility and transp ort, health, and religion. Through this decisive fifty-year period, as young wom en increasingly worked for pay before marriage and went on to have fewer babies than their mothers, and as many men began turning their backs on the pub to spen d more time with their families, such apparently unobtrusive changes in gender r elations reshaped the experience of urban life and played a major part in making it modern. This book demonstrates how 'setting gender deep' in the context of a particular place - in this case New Zealand's earliest industrial suburbs - can illuminate the complex character of a key issue in debates about culture and so ciety.…

Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. History of New Zealand ­Women By Barbara Brookes. Publisher: Bridget Williams Books, Wellington, New Zealand, 2016, first edition. Softback, minor edge-wear otherwise near new with no inscriptions. What would a history of New Zealand look like that rejected Thomas Carlyle's definition of history as 'the biography of great men', and focused instead on the experiences of women? One that shifted the angle of vision and examined the stages of this country's development from the points of view of wives, daughters, mothers, grandmothers, sisters, and aunts? That considered their lives as distinct from (though often unwillingly influenced by) those of history's 'great men'? In her ground-breaking History of New Zealand Women, Barbara Brookes provides just such a history. This is more than an account of women in New Zealand, from those who arrived on the first waka to the Grammy and Man Booker Prize-winning young women of the current decade. It is a comprehensive history of New Zealand seen through a female lens.Brookes argues that while European men erected the political scaffolding to create a small nation, women created the infrastructure necessary for colonial society to succeed. Concepts of home, marriage and family brought by settler women, and integral to the developing state, transformed the lives of Maori women. The small scale of New Zealand society facilitated rapid change so that, by the twenty-first century, women are no longer defined by family contexts.In her long-awaited book, Barbara Brookes traces the factors that drove that change. Her lively narrative draws on a wide variety of sources to map the importance in women's lives not just of legal and economic changes, but of smaller joys, such as the arrival of a piano from England, or the freedom of riding a bicycle. 554 pages, illustrated.

Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. At Home in New Zealand - Houses, History, People By Barbara Brookes (Edited by). Publisher: Bridget Williams Books 2000. FIRST EDITION. SIGNED BY AUTHOR with an inscription to previous owner. Very good softback, minor shelf/edge-wear. This book explores the idea of home - inside and out, materially, ideologically, and even morally - from the mid-nineteenth century through to the development of state housing in the 1930's. Is the house a physical structure or is it a home and a place of emotional intimacy? Is the New Zealand idea of home still a detached house, surrounded by garden - flowers in the front, vegetables out back, often weatherboard with a painted corrugated iron roof? All of the essays uncover new dimensions in the meaning of the central word 'home' and the issues that notion encompasses - work, pleasure, style, feeling, and even the creation of a national culture. 256 pages with photos.
