In these contexts, it would be useful to know if women had authority over other women and how they used it, whether and how they contributed to resolving the marital conflicts of other women or if they added their weight to the powers of the justice system. In early modern history, family and marriage were the result of the interactions of social networks. The success or failure of marriage was, therefore, interpreted as the success or failure of kin, neighbours or community to advise on marital strategy. Just as guilt and punishment affect the social body, the domestic space was always open to the community. To understand domestic violence, we need to join micro-stories of domestic life with the study of family relationships that were part of daily life before and after the punishable acts. We need to know more about domestic violence as conflict built outside the home. The personal and the public were not separate, but intertwined in family relationships, kinship networks and neighbourhood. It is not possible to understand the husband’s role in domestic violence isolated from elements of social life such as family hierarchies, kinship ties and neighbours: everybody could participate in daily negotiations about patriarchy. All these elements are important if we are to understand the impact of violence, the enormous variety of spaces for everyday violent interactions and collective discipline. Uribe-Uran demonstrates a very good understanding of the strategies adopted by spousal killers. He opens the way for thinking about women’s participation in criminal cases in and out of court: being witnesses; exchanging opinions about criminal acts and procedures and thereby developing their views on violence and ‘justice’; finally, in cases where they committed crimes or were the victims, negotiating their place in the judicial system. But the women who are the focus of this book probably did not act alone; surely, in many cases, they acted within a social network. This and other questions remain open, but Fatal Love allows us to think about them.","PeriodicalId":358940,"journal":{"name":"Women's History Review","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130435592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indeed, in 1939 their leisure became an organised and respectable focus of state intervention. This article addresses how, and in what ways, the leisure of young women came to acquire significance as an issue of concern, object of analysis, and sphere of intervention. The argument developed here is that public approaches to young women's leisure need to be understood in terms of the ways in which ‘leisure’ was discursively constructed during the inter-war period as a social phenomenon of considerable significance, and how this intersected with discourses on female adolescence within a framework of concern for the stability of British society and democracy. Such concerns about society were strong throughout the inter-war period but were intensified during and immediately after the Second World War. The interconnection of these three themes of ‘leisure’, ‘adolescence’ and societal stability are illustrated with reference to discussions in the 1930s and 1940s about what constituted the problem of young women's leisure and suggestions concerning young women's leisure needs.","PeriodicalId":358940,"journal":{"name":"Women's History Review","volume":"238 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133931646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 1900, smoking was invariably associated with sexually deviant womanhood. Today, smoking is firmly, if contentiously, established as a feminine practice in British society. This article examines one aspect of the twentieth-century feminisation of smoking in Britain, namely, the ways in which smoking practices have been presented as appropriate for young women in the period 1920-70. Advertisements featured in magazines for young women aged 15-29 years have been chosen as a particularly apt medium through which to explore some of the ways in which cigarettes and smoking practices have been delineated and infused with meaning. These advertisements constituted a discourse for the circulation of messages about the relationship of women to cigarettes. Findings reveal a number of shifts in cigarette advertisements featured in Women's magazines from 1920 to 1970. Firstly, during the 1930s and early 1940s, advertisements were, in contrast to later counterparts, preoccupied with establishing smoking as a feminine practice. Key to processes by which smoking was feminised were various mechanisms whereby the cigarette was depicted as part of the presentation of a heterosexual identity and where smoking practices were embedded in heterosexual relations and rituals. Secondly, there was a discernible shift in the way women were addressed by advertisements, from potential women smokers in the 1930s to more general consumers in the 1960s. Thirdly and relatedly, the significance attached to women smoking changed between 1920 and 1970. In the 1930s, smoking was utilised to signify that women were \"modern\"; in the period 1960-70, smoking served to indicate that women were recognised, and accorded status, as consumers.</p>","PeriodicalId":358940,"journal":{"name":"Women's History Review","volume":" ","pages":"249-72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2001-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09612020100200289","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40028404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
