Abstract

The new LSE Library online exhibition Making Modern Women: Women’s Magazines in Interwar Britain highlights the complexity of magazines produced by women for women readers between the two World Wars and the different notions of ‘modern women’ they suggest. In this blog post, curator Dr Gillian Murphy introduces six items from Making Modern Women. Taken collectively, the examples show the richness and diversity of genres addressed to women readers, offering them a new world of opportunities, as wives and mothers, as active, global citizens and as wage-earners.
