This book is centered on the history of the girl from the medieval period through
to the early twenty-first century. Authored by an international team of scholars,
the volume explores the transition from adolescent girlhood to young womanhood, the
formation and education of girls in the home and in school, and paid work undertaken
by girls in different parts of the world and at different times. It highlights the
value of a comparative approach to the history of the girl, as the contributors point
to shared attitudes to girlhood and the similarity of the experiences of girls in
workplaces across the world. Contributions to the volume also emphasise the central
role of girls in the global economy, from their participation in the textile industry
in the eighteenth century, through to the migration of girls to urban centres in twentieth-century
Africa and China
