The Erosion of Childhood: Childhood in Britain 1860-1918
Posted on 2010-04-13

Author: Lionel Rose
Publisher: Routledge (1991) Binding: Library Binding, 304 pages pricer: $125.00 ISBN-10: 041500165X editorialreviews The Erosion of Childhood discusses the changing status of children from the mid-Victorian period to the end of World War I. The author emphasizes that their status was as objects to be used and abused, rather than as people with personalities in their own left. The book looks at the exploitation of children in the worlds of work, school, and home. Lionel Rose shows how conditions improved over time, but expresses an underlying cynicism about the reasons for this improvement. Technological advances displaced children from some trades, so that mandatory schooling became the only alternative to the perceived menace of youths idling on the streets. Schools were corrals where children learned by rote their often meaningless lessons, and teachers' earnings were related to exam scores (CCCC``payment by resultCCCC''). Such methods aimed only to make the child more CCCC``civilizedCCCC''--good factory fodder. In the last section, Rose compares the home life of the working-class child with that of his middle-class counterpart and finds that they both suffered, but in different ways. While the former was expected to contribute to the family income from an early age, the latter was segregated from parents in the nursery and boarding school, and subject to a highly structured upbringing. checked
