Their story has become lore among feminists, in effect separating women's fight for voting rights from contemporary issues in British political history and disconnecting their militancy from other forms of political militancy in Britain in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Mayhall examines the strategies that suffragettes employed to challenge the definitions of citizenship in Britain. She examines the resistance origins within liberal political tradition, its emergence during Britain's involvement in the South African War, and its enactment as spectacle. Enlarging the study of the militant campaign for suffrage, Mayhall analyzes not only its implications for the social history of gender but also, and more importantly, its connections to British political and intellectual history OP - 218 CN - JN979 .M395 2003eb SN - 9780195347838 SN - 0195347838 SN - 0195185633 SN - 9780195185638 SN - 0195159934 SN - 9780195159936 SN - 1280503068 SN - 9781280503061 SN - 9781602569638 SN - 1602569630 SN - 9786610503063 SN - 6610503060 KW - Women : Suffrage : Great Britain : History.
