摘要

女权主义历史学家早就认识到个人自主性和女性谋生能力之间的共生关系。本文利用法律和新闻文献来研究一位女性在19世纪90年代是如何艰难地走上工资收入之路的。它认为，凯瑟琳·基什内尔将自己视为一个自主的经济实体，并在婚姻和婚外恋中享有平等的自主权。该论文的结论是，尽管19世纪90年代新南威尔士州的妇女解放和机会不断增加，但实现经济自治的道路仍然很难走。

‘Going her Own Road’: The Tortured Path to Economic Independence in Late Colonial New South Wales

Feminist historians have long recognised the symbiotic relationship between personal autonomy and a woman's capacity to earn her own living. This paper draws on legal and press documentation to examine how one woman navigated the difficult path of wage-earning during the 1890s. It argues that Catherine Kirchner saw herself as an autonomous economic entity and conducted herself with equal autonomy within her marriage and an extra-marital love affair. The paper concludes that despite the rhetoric of increasing emancipation and opportunity for women in 1890s New South Wales, the path to economic autonomy remained a difficult one to traverse.
