{"product_id":"a-belle-epoque-diana-holmes-9781845450946","title":"A Belle Epoque?: Women and Feminism in French Society and Culture 1890-1914","description":"\u003cp\u003e The Third Republic, known as the 'belle époque', was a period of lively, articulate and surprisingly radical feminist activity in France, borne out of the contradiction between the Republican ideals of liberty, equality and fraternity and the reality of intense and systematic gender discrimination. Yet, it also was a period of intense and varied artistic production, with women disproving the critical nearconsensus that art was a masculine activity by writing, painting, performing, sculpting, and even displaying an interest in the new \"seventh art\" of cinema. This book explores all these facets of the period, weaving them into a complex, multi-stranded argument about the importance of this rich period of French women's history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diana Holmes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1845450949\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781845450946\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d","brand":"Diana Holmes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906960216319,"sku":"9781845450946","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7b942751-0def-4f20-936d-a65cecf9626b.jpg?v=1748771894","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-belle-epoque-diana-holmes-9781845450946","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
