Husbandry to Housewifery: Women, Economic Change, and Housework in Ireland 1890-1914
Bourke, Joanna (Lecturer in Modern Social and Economic History, Lecturer in Modern Social and Economic History, Birkbeck College, London)
This is a study of the lives of Irish women between 1890 and 1914. Joanna Bourke traces the shift of their labour from the fields and into the home, showing how their position within the employment market deteriorated. Controversially, she demonstrates that Irish women welcomed this altered role, preferring housework to many of the other options available to them.
