Surplus Women: The Life of the Victorian Spinster

Video Description

In the 1800s, once a woman reached her mid-twenties, she would be considered a spinster if she was still unmarried. However, this century also saw significant changes in the way that people perceived marriage, resulting in the rise of self-made spinsters. In this video we will explore the life of a single woman in the 1800s, learn about the history of the spinster, and what it was like to be a working woman in the Victorian era.
