This collection advances ongoing debates within suffrage history whilst also drawing on a range of new sources, different intellectual techniques and methodological approaches, which challenge established interpretations. With its focus on politics and political activism in its broadest sense, this collection makes a timely and substantial contribution to understanding the meaning of politics and political activism across the UK (and indeed, across the world) in this period, particularly as defined and experienced by women at the grassroots. This collection is a reminder of the ways in which women have often encountered and battled a hostile political climate, but pushed forward with determination, skill, tenacity and optimism: resonating with the renewed interest in women?s history and feminist politics today. 410 0$aNew historical perspectives. 606 $aModern history to 20th century: c 1700 to c 1900$2bicssc 607 $aGreat Britain$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 7$aModern history to 20th century: c 1700 to c 1900 676 $a324.6/23 702 $aHughes-Johnson$b Alexandra 702 $aJenkins$b Lyndsey 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910508485603321 996 $aThe Politics of Women's Suffrage$93020763 997 $aUNINA
