I am beginning to study the history of home economics in connection with women’s page content. In particular, some of the food journalists were trained in home economics.

I am beginning to read this book that takes a new look at the field of home ec – looking beyond the assumption that this was simply a way of confining women to traditional roles. I hope to do the same for the study of women’s pages.

Cornell University as a great online exhibit about the history of home ec.
