To Love, Honour and Obey: Wife-Battering in Working Class Montreal, 1869-1879
|
| Abstract |
An analysis of wife-battering as reported in the Montreal Star. The author argues that resistance to wife-abuse in the second-half of the nineteenth century was linked to the temperance movement. The movement made wife-battering into a public issue by linking it to its anti-drinking campaign.
