Pioneering Women: Riddel Hall and Queens University Belfast
Langbeschreibung
Few topics have produced more heroines than the struggle of women for their right to education. Foremost amongst the pioneers of third-level education for women in the north of Ireland were Eliza and Isabella Riddel. Never themselves having had the opportunity of university education, in 1913 they founded Riddel Hall as a residence for women students. Ruth Duffin, the hall's formidable first warden, had very strong ideas about citizenship, culture and physical exercise that proved to be visionary in every sense. The personal chronicle she kept, recording how she realised her ambition to bring culture and self-empowerment to sometimes reluctant female students, is one of the fascinating features of this book.
Gillian McClelland graduated from Queen's University Belfast with a BA (Hons) in Social Anthropology, and subsequently, a PhD in 2000. She currently teaches at the University in the Schools of Anthropological Studies and of Sociology, Social Policy and Women's Studies.
