ASHGATE[2012]1 online resource (244 p.)Ashgate studies in childhood, 1700 to the presentDescription based upon print version of record.1-4094-2266-6 Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction : girls of the period -- The religious girl : girlhood in the Monthly packet (1851-99) -- The latest sensation : girlhood and the girl of the Period miscellany -- The healthy girl : fitness and beauty in the Girl's own paper (1880-1907) -- The educated girl : Atalanta (1887-98) and the debate on education -- The marrying girl : social purity and marriage in the Young woman (1892-1915) -- The modern girl : heroic adventures in the Girl's realm (1898-1915).Focusing on six popular British girls' periodicals, Moruzi explores the debate about the shifting nature of Victorian girlhood between 1851 and 1915. Moruzi's analyses of competing discourses within girls' periodicals demonstrate how these publications were able to frame feminine behaviour in ways that embraced the changing role of girls in nineteenth-century society while also attempting to maintain traditional feminine ideals of virtue and purity.Ashgate studies in childhood, 1700 to the present.Children's periodicals, EnglishHistoryYouths' periodicalsGreat BritainHistoryGirlsBooks and readingGreat BritainHistoryYoung womenBooks and readingGreat BritainHistoryGirlsGreat BritainSocial life and customs19th centuryYoung womenGreat BritainSocial life and customs19th centuryGirlsGreat BritainSocial life and customs20th centuryYoung womenGreat BritainSocial life and customs20th centuryChildren's periodicals, EnglishHistory.Youths' periodicalsHistory.GirlsBooks and readingHistory.Young womenBooks and readingHistory.GirlsSocial life and customsYoung womenSocial life and customsGirlsSocial life and customsYoung womenSocial life and customs052.0835/2Moruzi Kristine1474690MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779105503321Constructing girlhood through the periodical press, 1850-19153688479UNINA
