WOMEN EVERYDAY LIFE IN UKRAINIAN CITIES DURING THE FIRST WORLD WAR: MODERN HISTORIOGRAPHY

The article is dedicated to the modern historical researches, that were developing some issues of women everyday life of 1914-1917 in Ukrainian cities. It is defined that the most of scholars pay their attention in gender and everyday life studies to the issues of employment, fashion and deviant behavior in cities during the First World War. In this period traditional living habits of women in urban areas had been radically changed. Many of women, who had lost their husbands, had to seek employment to feed their families. They hadn’t given up hard work and mastered traditional ‘man’ professions, such as trainman, driver, merchants etc. Some women and refugees who hadn’t been able to adjust to new realities, became a victim of rogues; the number of crimes, frauds and deviance behavior in cities had increased. Nonetheless, during the war women became more confident to maintain their rights and liberties.

Keywords: everyday life, refugees, women, First World War, historiography, urban studies.
