Cultivating Citizen Readers: Clemence Dane’s Historical Essays in Good Housekeeping
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT
Clemence Dane’s interwar book pages for Good Housekeeping promote women’s reading history and reading across historical periods; they cultivate reader citizens poised to increase their agency in interwar cultural, professional, and public spheres. Good Housekeeping in the 1920s routinely published the views and experiences of prominent and accomplished women; and Dane’s book essays exemplify feminist periodical writers’ confidence in newly enfranchised women, whose citizenship Dane extended to the stewardship of good books.
