Abstract

Vrouwelijke leerkrachten in Groot-Brittannië speelden een belangrijke rol bij de ontwikkeling van het feminisme in de periode van de eeuwwisseling tot aan de tweede wereldoorlog. Zij waren zeer begaan met hun plaats als vrouw binnen het onderwijs. Vanaf 1900 engageerden zij zich in de strijd voor gelijk loon voor gelijk werk en voor het vrouwenkiesrecht. Later kwamen daar nog campagnes bij voor betere promotiekansen voor vrouwen in het onderwijs, en tegen de uitsluiting van gehuwde vrouwelijke leerkrachten. Dit boek onderzoekt waarom juist leraressen, als beroepsgroep, zo een sterk politiek en feministisch bewustzijn ontwikkelden. Meer dan andere vrouwelijke werknemers engageerden zij zich in vakbonden en kaartten daar thema's zoals gelijk loon aan.

Abstract

"Tracking the changing representation of female gender-crossing in the press, this text breaks new ground to reveal findings where both desire between women and cross-gender identification are understood.Her Husband was a Woman! exposes real-life case studies from the British tabloids of women who successfully passed as men in everyday life, perhaps marrying other women or fighting for their country. Oram revises assumptions about the history of modern gender and sexual identities, especially lesbianism and transsexuality.This book provides a fascinating resource for researchers and students, grounding the concepts of gender performativity, lesbian and queer identities in a broadly-based survey of the historical evidence." --

Abstract

Where exactly is queer England? There has been much discussion of London as a queer city, but what about the many thousands of queer lives lived elsewhere? From Manchester's bars and nightclubs, to Brighton's seafront, the attractions of Leeds to the dockside delights of Plymouth, in Queer Beyond London two leading LGBTQ historians will take you on a journey through four cities with rich and diverse queer histories. They show how geography, size, economy, city government and local history and culture shaped LGBTQ life in these places, each city forging a vibrant queer culture of its own. Using the pioneering community histories that have been produced in each of these cities, and including the voices of queer people who have made their lives there, the book tells local stories to change our national history.

Abstract

"Ranging from the mid-19th century to the present, and from Edinburgh to Plymouth, this powerful collection explores the significance of locality in queer space and experiences in modern British history. The chapters cover a broad range of themes from migration, movement and multiculturalism; the distinctive queer social and political scenes of different cities; and the ways in which places have been reimagined through locally led community history projects. The book challenges traditional LGBTQ histories which have tended to conceive of queer experience in the UK as a comprising a homogeneous, national narrative. Edited by leading historians, the book foregrounds the voices of LGBTQ-identified people by looking at a range of letters, diaries, TV interviews and oral testimonies. It provides a unique and fascinating account of queer experiences in Britain and how they have been shaped through different localities"--
