DREAMERS OF A NEW DAY

Book ID/图书代码: 13850010B36326

English Summary/英文概要: From the 1880s to the 1920s, a profound social awakening among women extended the possibilities of change far beyond the struggle for the vote. Amid the growth of globalized trade, mass production, immigration and urban slums, American and British women broke with custom and prejudice. Taking off corsets, forming free unions, living communally, buying ethically, joining trade unions, doing social work in settlements, these dreamers of a new day - conceived new ways of arranging daily life from childcare to industrial relations. In the process, they challenged ideas about sexuality, mothering, housework, the economy and citizenship. Forming broad coalitions and movements with strong transatlantic links, both radicals and reformers were overturning assumptions about everyday life - long before it came to be theorized in the 1960s. Drawing on a wealth of research, Sheila Rowbotham has written a groundbreaking new history that shows how women created much of the fabric of modern life. These innovative dreamers raised questions that remain at the forefront of our twenty-first-century lives

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 早在十九世纪八十年代到二十世纪二十年代之间,一场社会意识形态的转变正逐步在女性群体当中萌生开来,不仅仅是针对选举权,其巨大的影响早已波及到了社会生活的各个层面。 伴随着全球贸易的突飞猛进,生产制造业的规模扩大,移民潮以及城市平民区的相继出现,处在巨大社会变革之下的英美两国女性,对传统的世俗与偏见发起了一场挑战。她们丢掉了束身内衣,搬进了社区、加入了工会并热衷于社会福利,怀揣着对于崭新生活的理想,这些女权的先驱们在家庭与工作之间开拓出了一条全新的道路。正是于这个过程当中,从两性关系、养育责任、家庭工作到经济事务甚至是公民权益等等,女性们纷纷开始向传统观念发出了挑战。 早在上世纪六十年代正式成为一种论调之前,横跨大西洋两岸的纽带便紧紧将两国的女性们联系到了一起,借助广泛的同盟与社会运动,昔日扣在女性生活上的枷锁被一一打破。通过大量的研究,本书作者希拉罗博特姆向我们描述了一段全新的女性历史,以及她们对于当代社会生活所作出的巨大贡献。 (ANDY)
