Synopsis

This book investigates nineteenth-century England’s infanticide trends and cultural perceptions of children as revealed through letters and diaries of that era. The author offers a nuanced study of infanticide through the lens of social history, arguing that shifts in economic status and women’s roles in society contributed to the changing perceptions of children in this period. Providing a unique examination of the history of childhood, the book delves into the complexities of familial relationships, women's agency, and the evolving legal and medical understandings of infanticide during the 19th century. Its interdisciplinary approach sheds light on the complexities of child-rearing and societal values during a transformative time in British history.
