Informationen zum Autor CHRISTINE MYERS is Education Instructor at Lourdes College, USA and Adjunct Professor of Education at Franklin University, USA. Klappentext University Coeducation in the Victorian Era chronicles the inclusion of women in state-supported male universities during the nineteenth century. Based on primary sources produced by the administrators, faculty, and students, or other contemporary Victorian writers, this book provides insight from multiple perspectives of an important step in the progress of gender relations in higher education and society at large.
