Reihe: Genders and Sexualities in History

A Victorian parsonage was a 'religious family enterprise', a showcase of ruling ideas, the headquarters of parish charities and a point of connection for multilayered networks in and outside the parish. This book focuses on the lives of women brought up in this setting, as the Church of England steered its way through the secularisation of society.
