Beschreibung:
This paper focuses on three British scientific women who temporarily enjoyed independenceand responsibility by playing unconventional roles in war-torn Europe: Helena Gleichen, anaristocratic artist who trained as a radiographer and served on the Italian Front; HelenGwynne-Vaughan, a university botanist who led the Women’s Auxiliary Army Corps inFrance; and Dr Isabel Emslie Hutton, a doctor and medical researcher who battled againstappalling conditions in Serbia and Salonika. These three women also exemplify British post-War experiences: despite the enfranchisement of women over 30 in 1918, conventionalhierarchies were rapidly re-established during peacetime.
