Description: Cunard relates on women working in factories and traditionally male occupations, makes reference to Storm Jameson as writer and President of the British P.E.N. Club and to Una Marson as poet, writer and editor for the BBC: in so doing she associated women’s independence with the possibility to occupy men’s places. Cunard, who had always struggled against the confinements of aristocratic femininity and defiantly embarked in ventures especially hazardous for a woman, saw men’s “place” as the site of freedom and considered action and activism as the best strategies for women to reach it. |
