Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Girl at Work: A Book of Vocational Guidance The life of the average woman is divided, gener ally, into two periods of work, that of paid employ ment and that of home-making. No adequate scheme of training for girls can fail to take account of this fact. They should be equipped with knowledge and skill for home-making, and assisted in making the best use of their years in paid work. Happily, it appears from an investigation of the conditions affecting girls as wage-earners that the knowledge which helps them to be good home-makers is usees sary to their well-being in paid employment. Tech nical training and skill are not more helpful to a girl at work than specialized knowledge in matters of food, clothing, health, and daily regimen. Lack of training in home-making is probably the greatest drawback which a girl in paid employment can have. Her business during her first years of paid employ ment may not require much skill or experience, but her living conditions require all the specialized woman's knowledge that training can give her. To bring about in the life of a girl a satisfactory connection between paid employment and home making, and to show the home employments in their rightful place as occupations of the first importance, are necessary objectives in any book of this character.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Thinking about work is the beginning of one of the happiest and most useful of our experiences. Through work there comes to us the pleasure of a growing knowledge of the great world and its wonders, the delight of intercourse with other people, and the happiness of friendship with our fellow-workers. Work well done is a doorway to whatever good things we most desire. Best of all, perhaps, to the girl who is earning her living, is the satisfaction of feeling that she is a useful citizen, doing her part in the development of Canada."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With introductory essays by historians, Framing Our Past emphasizes the lived experiences of women: their participation in many areas of social life, such as social rituals with other women; organized sporting clubs; philanthropic, spiritual and aesthetic activities; study and reading groups. The authors then focus on women's roles as nurturers and keepers of the hearth B their experiences with family management, child care, and health concerns. They consider women's varied contributions within formal and informal educational systems as well as their instrumental political role in consumer activism, social work, peace movements, and royal commissions. Canadian women's shaping of health care and science through nursing, physiotherapy and research are discussed, as is women's work, from domestic labour to dressmaking to broadcasting to banking. Using diary accounts, oral history, letters, organizational records, paintings, quilts, dressmaking patterns, milliners' records, posters, Framing our Past offers a unique opportunity to share what is rarely if ever seen, offering insights into the preservation and interpretation of historical sources.

Book Synopsis Women Who Made the News by : Marjory Lang
Download or read book Women Who Made the News written by Marjory Lang and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1999-08-26 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first newspaperwomen were employed to attract female subscribers and advertising revenue. Once hired, they found themselves confined to a narrow range of specialties that catered to conventionally defined women's interests - home-making, fashion, and high society - and most were patronized by their male peers. But these women journalists did more than simply deliver female consumers to advertisers. Some of them eventually made names for themselves as commercial reporters or political and even war correspondents. By making news about women for women, they created a distinctly female culture within the newspaper, chronicling the increasing participation of women in public affairs. Women Who Made the News is the story of the women who helped raise Canadian women's collective awareness of each other and of their achievements in the period leading up to World War II.
Download or read book Retail Nation written by Donica Belisle and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The experience of walking down a store aisle � replete with displays, salespeople, and infinite choice � is so common we often forget retail has a short history. Retail Nation traces Canada's transformation into a modern consumer society back to an era � 1890 to 1940 � when department stores such as Eaton's ruled the shopping scene and promised to strengthen the nation. Department stores emerge as agents of modern nationalism, but the nation they helped to define � white, consumerist, middle-class � was more limited, and contested, than nostalgic portraits of the early department store suggest.
Book Synopsis The Feminine Gaze by : Anne Innis Dagg
Download or read book The Feminine Gaze written by Anne Innis Dagg and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Canadian women fiction writers have become justifiably famous. But what about women who have written non-fiction? When Anne Innis Dagg set out on a personal quest to make such non-fiction authors better known, she expected to find just a few dozen. To her delight, she unearthed 473 writers who have produced over 674 books. These women describe not only their country and its inhabitants, but a remarkable variety of other subjects: from the story of transportation to the legacy of Canadian missionary activity around the world. While most of the writers lived in what is now Canada, other authors were British or American travellers who visited Canada throughout the years and reported on what they found here. This compendium has brief biographies of all these women, short descriptions of their books, and a comprehensive index of their books’ subject matters. The Feminine Gaze: A Canadian Compendium of Non-Fiction Women Authors and Their Books, 1836-1945 will be an invaluable research tool for women’s studies and for all who wish to supplement the male gaze on Canada’s past.

Book Synopsis Pioneer Woman by : Elizabeth Thompson
Download or read book Pioneer Woman written by Elizabeth Thompson and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1991-03-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elizabeth Thompson develops the idea of the pioneer woman as an archetypal character firmly entrenched in Canadian fiction and the Canadian consciousness. Thompson's broad definition of the concept of pioneer can be seen to reflect the history of Canadian women, starting with the pioneers of settlement and continuing through the pioneers of spiritual perfection and psychological liberation. Various versions of the pioneer woman have appeared in English-Canadian fiction since Traill's development of the character type. Sara Jeannette Duncan's The Imperialist and Ralph Connor's The Man From Glengarry and Glengarry School Days feature pioneer women who cope not only with physical frontiers but also with those grounded in social and personal concerns. More recently, Margaret Laurence used this character type in The Stone Angel, A Jest of God, and The Diviners, with characters who inhabit internal, personal frontiers. Thompson argues that the longevity of this character type in English-Canadian fiction reveals an affinity between the pioneer woman and a common conception of the role of women in Canadian society. She suggests that the role for women proposed by the early immigrants was an appropriate choice for the Canadian frontier, regardless of the location and nature of that frontier.

Download or read book On the Job written by Craig Heron and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1986-01-01 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume enhance our understanding of Canadians on the job. Focusing on specific industries and kinds of work, from logging and longshoring to restaurant work and the needle trades, the contributors consider such issues as job skill, mass production, and the transformation of resource industries. They raise questions about how particular jobs are structured and changed over time, the role of workers' resistance and trade unions in shaping the lives of workers, and the impact of technology. Together these essays clarify a fundamental characteristic shared by all labour processes: they are shaped and conditioned by the social, economic, and political struggles of labour and capital both inside and outside the workplace. They argue that technological change, as well as all the transformations in the workplace, must become a social process that we all control.

Book Synopsis Lessons in Legitimacy by : Sean Carleton
Download or read book Lessons in Legitimacy written by Sean Carleton and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1849 and 1930, schooling in what is now British Columbia supported the development of a capitalist settler society. Lessons in Legitimacy examines government-assisted schooling for Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples – public schools, Indian Day Schools, and Indian Residential Schools – in one analytical frame. Sean Carleton demonstrates how church and state officials administered different school systems that trained Indigenous and settler children and youth to take up and accept unequal roles in the emerging social order. This important study reveals how an understanding of the historical uses of schooling can inform contemporary discussions about the role of education in reconciliation and improving Indigenous–settler relations.
