Fuchs comments that the 'climate of calamities' caused the men and women in poverty to survive. The lengths that women (and briefly men) had to go through to ensure the family survival are truly eye-opening. Also, the conditions and lifestyles mimic the 21st century too. History doesn't truly change. ( ) ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

This book is a major history of the dramatic and enduring changes in the daily lives of poor European women and men in the nineteenth century. Rachel G. Fuchs conveys the extraordinary difficulties facing the destitute from England to Russia, paying particular attention to the texture of women's everyday lives. She shows their strength as they attempted to structure a life and set of relationships within a social order, culture, community, and the law. Within a climate of calamities, the poor relied on their own resourcefulness and community connections where the boundaries between the private and public were indistinguishable, and on a system of exchange and reciprocity to help them fashion their culture of expediencies. This accessible synthesis introduces readers to conflicting interpretations of major historic developments and evaluates those interpretations. It will be essential reading for students of women's and gender studies, urban history and social and family history. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
