History / identità di genere, crisi
English term or phrase: Susa marches
By now, as Tamara Plakins Thornton points out in her book Handwriting
in America, penmanship, once so closely identified with the
male world of business, was facing an identity crisis, for the business
world itself was changing. As corporations grew, their employees were
losing their powers of autonomy and initiative, promotion prospects
were limited, and following the introduction of the typewriter modern
women were entering the office place. Thornton sees the new penmanship
of the end of the century, Palmer’s penmanship, as a reassertion of
male muscularity. It ‘joins the many phenomena,’ she writes, ‘from the
cycling craze to Susa marches, identified by the historian John Higham
as symptomatic of the 1890s mania for masculine vigour and activity.
That mania has in turn been linked with a crisis of gender identity that
first arose in the same decade.’
