Alin Ciupalãs book, \"Women in the Romanian National Project,\" explores the role of women in achieving the Romanian national project, including the contributions of bourgeois and middle-class women, the position of women in rural areas, and love, sex, and eroticism during wartime. The book features portraits of female figures such as Queen Marie, who organized field hospitals, supported civilians, promoted Romania abroad, and visited soldiers, and Ecaterina Teodoroiu, Romania's only female officer, who died leading troops in battle. Beyond women's contributions to the war, the book also examines the effects of the First World War on gender roles in Romania. Feminist leaders expected that a wartime \"training service\" would entitle women to a life with full rights as citizens. However, after the war, the situation returned to \"normal,\" and women largely continued to be excluded from the public sphere. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9789633866351\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":47306754949370,"sku":"9789633866351","price":135.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1746806179573_book.jpg?v=1746866775","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/women-in-romanias-first-world-war-9789633866351","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
