Domestic Servants on the New York and London Stages: 1880 - 1920 With an Emphasis on Costume

Abstract

dc:description

From 1880 to 1920, a social revolution took place in the United States and England, a revolution more costly in terms of human life and property than the French Revolution that preceded it a century earlier. Slow-moving, massive, and comprehensive, this social revolution had the same aim as its predecessor--the relief of the laboring classes from exploitation by the upperclass in whom wealth and power was vested.
