Using coroners’ inquests to gain intimate access to the working-class home and its inhabitants, this book explores their marital, quasi-marital, and post-marital beds to reveal the material, domestic, and emotional experience of working-class marriage during everyday life and at times of crisis. Drawing on the recent approach of utilising domestic objects to explore interpersonal relationships, the marital bed not only provides a rereading of the experiences of the working-class wife but also brings the much maligned or simply overlooked working-class husband into the picture. Moreover, it also extends our understanding of the various marriage-like arrangements existing throughout this class. Moving through the marital life-cycle, this book provides a greater understanding of marriages from the outset, during childbirth, at times of strife and marital breakdown, and upon the death of a spouse.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | | 关键词 | Material culture; Long nineteenth century; Domesticity; Spatial history; Nocturnal history | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-60390-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-86852-3 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-60390-2 | | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2017 |
