Description

First published in 1978, this multi-disciplinary study examines Victorian family life through nine essays exploring intimacy, authoritarianism and social reform. The collection investigates Victorian attitudes to childbirth, the role of domestic staff, upper-class paterfamilias authority, family work patterns, fertility and working-class social issues. A critical survey introduces the essays, contextualising family history scholarship and identifying gaps in existing research. Through these varied perspectives, the book reveals the Victorian family as both a protective refuge and a site of complex social dynamics, offering readers insight into the private worlds and public roles that shaped nineteenth-century domestic life.
