Living in Sin: Cohabiting as Husband and Wife in Nineteenth-Century England
ISBN: 9780719085697 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Living in sin' is the first book-length study of cohabitation in nineteenth-century England, based on research into the lives of hundreds of couples. 'Common-law' marriages did not have any legal basis, so the Victorian courts had to wrestle with unions that resembled marriage in every way, yet did not meet its most basic requirements.
The majority of those who lived in irregular unions did so because they could not marry legally. Others chose not to marry, from indifference, from class differences, or because they dissented from marriage for philosophical reasons. This book looks at each...

Promises Broken: Courtship, Class, and Gender in Victorian England
ISBN: 9780813916101 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the nineteenth century, a woman who could prove a man had broken his promise to marry her was legally entitled to compensation for damages. Bridging the gap between history and literature, Ginger S. Frost offers an in-depth examination of these breaches of promise and compares actual with fictional cases. Althought the most important factor in determining the outcome of such trials was gender, class was also vital in assessing the suitability of mates. Promises Broken highlights the courtship practices of lower- and middle- class Victorians, a group much neglected in previous scholarship.

Victorian Childhoods
ISBN: 9780275989668 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Here, in colorful detail and with firsthand accounts, Frost paints a complete picture of Victorian childhood that illustrates both the difficulties and pleasures of growing up during this period. Differences of class, gender, region, and time varied the lives of children tremendously. Boys had more freedom than girls, while poor children had less schooling and longer working lives than their better-off...

Illegitimacy in English Law and Society, 1860-1930
ISBN: 9781784992606 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the legal and social consequences of growing up illegitimate in England and Wales between 1860 and 1930, a crucial transition period between Victorian respectability and Social Darwinism and the modern era of tolerance. By taking the child's point of view, rather than the mother's or the larger society's, this book offers new insights in childhood studies, social and family history, and the law. England had the harshest illegitimacy laws in Europe; a child of unwed parents was filis nullius, no one's child, and even the subsequent marriage of the parents did not legitimate...
