Casualties of History: Carrying Brickbats and Stones
Summary
<p><span>In this episode, we talk with historian and socialist-feminist Sheila Rowbotham about her own political and intellectual development. Rowbotham was a close friend of Edward and Dorothy Thompson, a participant in the radical movements of the 1960s and 1970s, and a prominent political writer and historian. We also discuss Chapters 12 and 13: the different meanings of discipline in working-class life, the Irish presence, and class-struggle elections in ninteenth-century Westminster.</span></p><p></p><div>References:</div><div></div><div>Sheila Rowbotham, Hilary Wainwright, and Lynne Segal, <i>Beyond the Fragments: Feminism and the Making of Socialism </i>(<a href="https://books.google.com/books/about/Beyond_the_Fragments.html?id=OlYqAAAAYAAJ&source=kp_book_description" rel="nofollow">https://books.google.com/&lt;wbr /&gt;books/about/Beyond_the_&lt;wbr /&gt;Fragments.html?id=&lt;wbr /&gt;OlYqAAAAYAAJ&amp;source=kp_book_&lt;wbr /&gt;description</a>)</div><div></div><div>Sheila Rowbotham, <i>Woman's Consciousness, Man's World </i>(<a href="https://www.versobooks.com/books/1768-woman-s-consciousness-man-s-world" rel="nofollow">https://www.versobooks.com/&lt;wbr /&gt;books/1768-woman-s-&lt;wbr /&gt;consciousness-man-s-world</a>)</div><div></div><div>Sheila Rowbotham, <i>Women, Resistance, and Revolution: A History of Women and Revolution in the Modern World </i>(<a href="https://www.versobooks.com/books/1558-women-resistance-and-revolution" rel="nofollow">https://www.versobooks.&lt;wbr /&gt;com/books/1558-women-&lt;wbr /&gt;resistance-and-revolution</a>)</div><div></div><div>Sheila Rowbotham, <i>Hidden from History: 300 Years of Women's Oppression and the Fight Against It </i>(<a href="https://www.plutobooks.com/9780904383560/hidden-from-history/" rel="nofollow">https://www.plutobooks.com/&lt;wbr /&gt;9780904383560/hidden-from-&lt;wbr /&gt;history/</a>)</div><div></div><div>"How Science Can Tell If Your Great-Grandparents Were Strikebreakers" <a href="https://www.motherjones.com/environment/2014/12/inquiring-minds-christine-kenneally/" rel="nofollow">https://www.&lt;wbr /&gt;motherjones.com/environment/&lt;wbr /&gt;2014/12/inquiring-minds-&lt;wbr /&gt;christine-kenneally/</a></div><div></div><div><i>Black Dwarf </i><a href="https://www.marxists.org/history/etol/newspape/black-dwarf/index.htm" rel="nofollow">https://www.marxists.&lt;wbr /&gt;org/history/etol/newspape/&lt;wbr /&gt;black-dwarf/index.htm</a></div><p></p>
