| Zusammenfassung: | In The Girl's Own Claudia Nelson and Lynne Vallone bring together eleven essays that explore British and American Victorian representations of the adolescent girl. The variety of contemporary sources on which the essays draw includes conduct books, housekeeping manuals, periodicals, biographies, photographs, paintings, and educational treatises. The institutions, practices, and literatures discussed in this volume reveal the ways in which the Girl expressed her independence, as well as the ways in which she was presented and controlled. As many of the contributors note, nineteenth-century visions of girlhood in both Britain and the United States were extremely ambiguous. The adolescent girl was a figure both fascinating and troubling to Victorian commentators, who often debated her place in society In the controversy over female sexuality and behavior she played an especially significant role, because she embodied the potential for either virtuous attention to duty - as wife/mother or spinster/sister - or depraved independence and sexual freedom. Unlike other examinations of Victorian girlhood, this collection is particularly distinguished by its combination of literary and cultural history in its discussion of both British and American texts and practices. Among the topics addressed are the nineteenth-century attempt to link morality and diet; the making of heroines in biographies for girls; Lewis Carroll's and John Millais's iconographies of girlhood in, respectively, their photographs and paintings; genre fiction for and by girls; and the effort to reincorporate teenage unwed mothers into the domestic life of Victorian America Together these essays follow the adolescent girl from her domestic life as housekeeper and as consumer of didactic literature, through her canonization or condemnation by nineteenth-century society, to her forays into the public sphere of school or employment, and finally back "home" again, as turn-of-the-century social activists tried to come to terms with girls who refused to act according to Victorian values. Ultimately, neither actual nor fictional girls appear content to be categorized as the reassuringly meek and ornamental beings their society desired |

| spelling | The girl's own cultural histories of the Anglo-American girl, 1830 - 1915 ed. by Claudia Nelson ... Athens u.a. Univ. of Georgia Press 1994 VIII, 296 S. Ill. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier In The Girl's Own Claudia Nelson and Lynne Vallone bring together eleven essays that explore British and American Victorian representations of the adolescent girl. The variety of contemporary sources on which the essays draw includes conduct books, housekeeping manuals, periodicals, biographies, photographs, paintings, and educational treatises. The institutions, practices, and literatures discussed in this volume reveal the ways in which the Girl expressed her independence, as well as the ways in which she was presented and controlled. As many of the contributors note, nineteenth-century visions of girlhood in both Britain and the United States were extremely ambiguous. The adolescent girl was a figure both fascinating and troubling to Victorian commentators, who often debated her place in society In the controversy over female sexuality and behavior she played an especially significant role, because she embodied the potential for either virtuous attention to duty - as wife/mother or spinster/sister - or depraved independence and sexual freedom. Unlike other examinations of Victorian girlhood, this collection is particularly distinguished by its combination of literary and cultural history in its discussion of both British and American texts and practices. Among the topics addressed are the nineteenth-century attempt to link morality and diet; the making of heroines in biographies for girls; Lewis Carroll's and John Millais's iconographies of girlhood in, respectively, their photographs and paintings; genre fiction for and by girls; and the effort to reincorporate teenage unwed mothers into the domestic life of Victorian America Together these essays follow the adolescent girl from her domestic life as housekeeper and as consumer of didactic literature, through her canonization or condemnation by nineteenth-century society, to her forays into the public sphere of school or employment, and finally back "home" again, as turn-of-the-century social activists tried to come to terms with girls who refused to act according to Victorian values. Ultimately, neither actual nor fictional girls appear content to be categorized as the reassuringly meek and ornamental beings their society desired Geschichte 1800-1900 Geschichte 1832-1902 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1830-1915 gnd rswk-swf Beeldvorming gtt Meisjes gtt Populaire cultuur gtt Darstellung Geschichte Teenage girls in popular culture England History 19th century Teenage girls in popular culture United States History 19th century Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf Mädchen (DE-588)4036871-3 gnd rswk-swf Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 gnd rswk-swf USA USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Mädchen (DE-588)4036871-3 s Geschichte 1830-1915 z DE-604 USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Geschichte 1832-1902 z Literatur (DE-588)4035964-5 s Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 s Nelson, Claudia 1960- Sonstige (DE-588)1028865716 oth |
