The Victorian era 1800-1840 By Teguan and Antonia

Roles in men At this time men were the head of the house and the woman was in submission to him Me were the breadwinners of the family and were either working or fighting in the war They had rights that many woman did not have as well as the ability to have occupations and their own properties and land that women were not able to acquire Men usually worked as farmers

Key historical movements In 1837,Victoria becomes queen at the age of 18 after the death of her uncle and reigned over 60 years on the throne, longer than any British monarch. In 1838, Charles Dickens, who was one of the greatest Victorian novelists, published Oliver Twist. People's Charter advocates social and political reform The People's Charter advocated democratic reform on the basis of six points: one man, one vote; equal electoral districts; payment of members of parliament; elections by secret ballot; removal of property qualifications for MPs; and parliaments elected every year. 'Chartism' gained substantial support among working people during the next decade and presented three national petitions to parliament in 1839, 1842 and 1849. It was the most significant radical pressure group of the 19th century. Slavery was also abolished in the British empire The London-Birmingham line was opened and this precipitated the first of the railway booms

More Key Historical movements In 1839, Prime Minister Viscount Melbourne resigns and sparks a political crisis. In 1840, a uniform postage rate of one penny is introduced, as the British postage costs were extremely expensive at the time In addition, vaccination for the deprived and poor people was introduced via the poor law authorities at the expense of ratepayers.

Key themes The Industrial Revolution. ... Population growth and migration. ... Social reforms. ... The rise of the middle classes. ... The growth of democracy. ... Expansion of Empire. ... Idealisation of the family. ... The growth of leisure pursuit

Attitudes towards writers Within the early 1800s, it was challenging for women to be successful in a male-dominated literary marketplace. If a woman chose to commence a literary career, they had to face social censure and received substandard pay. As a result of this, it was incredibly difficult for a woman to gain access to masculine social and professional networks.
