Résumé

Mrs. Beeton's "The Book of Household Management, " first published in 1861, stands as a seminal text in the genre of domestic literature, offering a comprehensive guide to the management of a Victorian household. Written in a clear and practical style, the book encompasses everything from detailed recipes to household budgeting, emphasizing efficiency and domestic harmony. Its rich array of tips and advice addresses the roles and responsibilities of women in the home, reflecting the societal expectations of the time while also challenging some conventions by sharing practical knowledge aimed at elevating the status of the home.
This enduring work remains a cornerstone in understanding the complexities of 19th-century domestic life and women's roles therein. Isabella Beeton, a skilled journalist and editor, was undoubtedly influenced by her upbringing and early experiences in domestic service, which culminated in her keen insights into household management. Her personal journey, marked by both triumph and tragedy, allowed her to empathize with the struggles of women in her era, and her innovative approach helped to shape the world of domestic writing.
Beeton's commitment to educating women about their roles not only reflected her contemporary context but also laid the groundwork for future discussions surrounding gender and domesticity. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in the history of domestic management, gender studies, or culinary arts. It serves not only as a practical manual for modern readers but also as a fascinating historical document that offers valuable insights into societal norms and the evolution of the household.
Beeton's work continues to resonate, making it an essential read for scholars and enthusiasts alike.
