"This book examines how a group of transnational British-Italian women affiliated with the exiled patriots of the Italian Left repurposed traditionally feminine activities, such as fundraising, gift-giving, maternity, and memory collection, to make a substantial contribution to Italian Unification and state-building.

“Revolutionary Domesticity is a ground-breaking work that makes important contributions to Victorian studies. … it should inspire future comparative histories that expand our understanding of how and why people struggled to change the social and political order in Britain, Italy, and beyond. By defining the terms of ‘revolutionary domesticity’ so clearly.” (Allison Scardino Belzer, Victorian Studies, Vol. 65 (4), 2023)
