Course Description:
Though seen as a constant, family life - and one's role in the family - is ever-changing. This course will examine different iterations, conceptions and representations of families across Europe since the French Revolution. From the Victorian invention of childhood to the rise of the post-WWII teenager, through empires, democracies and dictatorships, wars and revolutions, we will explore how childhood, motherhood and fatherhood have been defined and then redefined. Access to and discussions about family planning will also be explored. Sources include scholarly articles, documents, memoirs and films. |
