Th also examines transnationality and modernity, arguing that during the eighteenth to nineteenth centuries transculturality as a cultural marker was in contrast with national fallacies. In addition to this, it provides insight into the controversies concerning women’s social standing, and it investigates the prevailing social norms, restrictions, and biases that affected their lives. Th draws on a wide range of original printed sources such as school archives, government documents, newspapers, and journals as well as secondary sources of literature.
