Opis książki
Amazons and military maids. Women who dressed as men in pursuit of life, liberty and happiness
The author traces the careers of women who have lived and worked as men, from the 1700s to their re-emergence in the First World War. She assesses the way in which womens' experience changes to accommodate masculine and feminine concepts and the tensions experienced by women as they struggle with the contradictions of harbouring male and female identities within themselves.
Amazons and military maids. Women who dressed as men in pursuit of life, liberty and happiness
The author traces the careers of women who have lived and worked as men, from the 1700s to their re-emergence in the First World War. She assesses the way in which womens' experience changes to accommodate masculine and feminine concepts and the tensions experienced by women as they struggle with the contradictions of harbouring male and female identities within themselves. In so doing, she tries to gain an insight into the changing sexual roles, patriotism and the ideology of war and peace. The writer draws on memoirs, letters, diaries, historical archives and rare sketches to illustrate her case.
Uwagi:
Trochę wytarta oprawa, pożółkłe i nieco zabrudzone brzegi stron, pożółkłe strony; książka pobiblioteczna - zawiera pieczątki i adnotacje biblioteczne oraz naklejkę biblioteczną na oprawie.
