| Résumé: | Kirkby weaves visual materials, previously unused archives and barmaids' own recollections into a rich narrative. She shows how gender shaped the pub through the interaction between female bar staff and male clientele, and traces the sexualisation of the industry. She provides new insights into the nineteenth-century feminist and temperance debates on women's work and examines the legal and industrial context in which working conditions developed. Barmaids traces the changing dynamics of bar work through the rush hour swill of early closing, and women's demands for equal pay and drinking rights, to the modern barmaid as 'flexible hotel careerist' |
