Description

Explore the complex relationship between labor and identity in British society with Gender at Work in Victorian Culture. Written by Martin A. Danahay, this volume provides a clear introduction to the social divisions of labor during the nineteenth century. In this era, the concept of work was deeply tied to masculinity. Danahay examines how male writers and artists navigated ideological contradictions where physical, muscular labor was often idealized, while intellectual and artistic efforts were frequently viewed through a feminized lens. This study helps readers understand how class and gender ideologies shaped the perception of professional and creative pursuits. Part of The Nineteenth Century Series, this book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in how Victorian culture defined the roles of men through their work. It offers a deep look into the historical tensions between physical toil and the mental labor of the creative class.
