By placing suffrages aesthetic experiments in conversation in one volume, Womens Suffrage in Word, Image, Music, Stage and Screen reveals the ways in which ideas crossed between various art forms. From treatments of fashion to the meaning of suffrage colours, from poster art to the architecture of gendered political spaces, the innovative chapters of this collection illuminate the variety of suffrage artistic experiment. This volume is essential reading for all interested in the intersection of aesthetics and political movements.

Barbara Green, Professor of English and Concurrent Faculty in Gender Studies at the University of Notre Dame, Indiana

This magnificent new work on British womens suffrage brings together the highly imaginative strategies deployed by women artists, musicians, playwrights, actresses to demand votes for women. These fifteen essays offer a fascinating wide-angle lens and close up images of the titanic struggle which achieved first instalment of the vote in 1918 and full female suffrage 1928. The extraordinary personal sacrifice and suffering of the women campaigners offer a poignant juxtaposition to the exquisitely designed banners, the marching bands and brilliantly stage-managed processions and protests which grabbed the attention of the politicians, the press and the public throughout the United Kingdom. This collection offers interesting new angles on the most important political struggle of the twentieth century.

Diane Atkinson, Author of Rise Up, Women! The Remarkable Lives of the Suffragettes (Bloomsbury, 2018)

Womens Suffrage in Word, Image, Music, Stage and Screen

This collection of essays explores the myriad ways in which the womens suffrage movement in Britain in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries engaged with, and was expressed through, literature, art and craft, music, drama and cinema.

Uniquely, this anthology places developments in the constituent arts side by side, and in dialogue, rather than focusing on a single field in isolation. In so doing, it illustrates how creative endeavours in different artforms converged in support of womens suffrage. Topics encompassed range from the artistic output of such household names as Sylvia Pankhurst and Ethel Smyth, to the recent feature film Suffragette. It also brings to light under-represented figures and neglected works related to the suffrage movement. A wide variety of material is explored, from poems, diaries and newspapers to posters, dress and artefacts to songs, opera, plays and film.

Published in the wake of the centenary of many women receiving the parliamentary vote in the UK, this book will appeal to scholars, undergraduate and graduate students, and members of the public interested in the broad areas of womens history and the womens suffrage movement, as well as across the arts disciplines.
