Description

Explore the connection between the private sphere and the global stage in this historical study. Globalising Housework examines how international influences reshaped the middle-class London home during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Between 1850 and 1914, London homes underwent major changes as expanding global influences altered how families ate, cleaned, and cared for one another. This book provides a detailed look at the golden age of domesticity. It examines how the daily work of maintaining a household reflected broader societal shifts in class, race, and politics. By focusing on the everyday toil of housework, the text reveals how the domestic environment helped define Britain's place in a changing world. It is an essential read for those interested in social history and the ways global shifts impact local lives.
