Description
Explores the way middle-class American women in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries added meaning to their lives through their "domestic amusements"--leisure pursuits that took place in and were largely focused on the home. Women elaborated on their everyday tasks and responsibilities with these amusements thus cultivating a heightened, aesthetically charged "saturated" state and created self-contained enchanted worlds.
