Camagay’s Working Women of Manila in the 19th Century pieces together the marginalized histories of working Filipino women during the Spanish colonial period. It presents the results of primary sources to document seven occupations: cigarreras (tobacco-factory workers), matronas titulares (licensed midwives),  maestras (teachers), criadas (female domestic workers), tenderas and vendadoras (store owners and vendors),  costureras and bordadoras (seamstresses and embroiderers), and mujeres publicas (prostitutes).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith women often absent or marginalized in the pages of history, the study attempts to unravel through archival sources and other non-documentary sources like literature and iconography the life of these working women. Despite the meager archival materials on women and more specifically working women, this study prides itself in having used primary sources to document working Filipino women during the Spanish period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublisher: \u003cbr\u003eUniversity of the Philippines Press, Philippines\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublication Date:\u003cbr\u003e2024\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat:\u003cbr\u003eSoftcover \/ 23 x 15.3 x 1.3 cm \/ BW \/ 214 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLanguage: \u003cbr\u003eEnglish, Spanish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eISBN: 978-621-09-0034-7\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mestiza Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45182269423660,"sku":null,"price":860.0,"currency_code":"PHP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/artbooks.ph\/products\/working-women-of-manila-in-the-nineteenth-century","provider":"artbooks.ph","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
