About this product
Product Information
Winner of the 2022 Open Publication Prize by the International Association for the Study of Popular Music (IASPM-ANZ) A Women's History of the Beatles is the first book to offer a detailed presentation of the band's social and cultural impact as understood through the experiences and lives of women. Drawing on a mix of interviews, archival research, textual analysis, and autoethnography, this scholarly work depicts how the Beatles have profoundly shaped and enriched the lives of women, while also reexamining key, influential female figures within the group's history. Organized topically based on key themes important to the Beatles story, each chapter uncovers the varied and multifaceted relationships women have had with the band, whether face-to-face and intimately or parasocially through mediated, popular culture. Set within a socio-historical context that charts changing gender norms since the early 1960s, these narratives consider how the Beatles have affected women's lives across three generations. Providing a fresh perspective of a well-known tale, this is a cultural history that moves far beyond the screams of Beatlemania to offer a more comprehensive understanding of what the now iconic band has meant to women over the course of six decades.

Reviews
A Women's History of the Beatles illuminates and stresses that how we tell stories matters , and the positions from which we tell them can affect the narratives that come forth ... [It's] historically minded, drawing on recollections from women whose lives both shaped and were shaped by the band, as well as forward-looking, considering the careers of women in various parts of the globe for whom The Beatles became a starting point for their own life's work., From fans to female Beatles-inspired bands, we see the powerful exchange of energy between the Beatles and the women who engaged with them internationally. Original interviews are interleaved with significant moments in the Beatles' history, giving a unique perspective into the way the band 'worked' as cultural figureheads., Christine Feldman-Barrett makes a compelling case that the Beatles belong to girls and women across social lines in distinct and important ways. Her book persuasively argues that to understand fully the Beatles phenomenon - one of the defining cultural episodes of the twentieth century - we must read it through the lens of gender., Women's history often involves a re-framing of the past, and in the field of popular music, curation, and analysis of the canon has usually been done by men. With this rich study across three generations, Feldman-Barrett shows how over time Beatlemania and Beatles culture has created a space for women's self-reflection, identity formation, and creative experimentation. An exciting contribution to women's history, popular music studies and our understanding of the Beatles., The number of existing texts on John, Paul, George, and Ringo is far too voluminous to list ... Feldman-Barrett's contribution nonetheless leaps out as indispensable amidst the broad and in-depth stories that have already been told about The Beatles., [H]er book is distinctive in charting both the band's role in women's lives and women's impact on the Beatles from the 1960s to the present. ... Christine Feldman-Barrett makes a compelling case that the Beatles belong to girls and women across social lines in distinct and important ways., " A Women's History of the Beatles illuminates and stresses that how we tell stories matters , and the positions from which we tell them can affect the narratives that come forth ...

A Women's History of the Beatles represents a fundamental, albeit long-neglected aspect of Beatles scholarship that, thanks to Feldman-Barrett's trailblazing work, will be the fount of a host of new inquiries to come." -- Rock and Music Studies "From fans to female Beatles-inspired bands, we see the powerful exchange of energy between the Beatles and the women who engaged with them internationally.

An exciting contribution to women's history, popular music studies and our understanding of the Beatles." -- Lucy O'Brien, author of She Bop: The Definitive History of Women in Popular Music "In this exciting and illuminating account, Christine Feldman-Barrett looks beneath the surface of Beatlemania to uncover the multiple interlocking ways in which women were shaped by, and helped to shape, the story of pop's most famous group. Understanding Beatles fandom less in terms of a top-down relationship than of a two-way street full of liberatory possibilities, A Women's History of the Beatles reveals the hitherto overlooked role of the Beatles in opening the space for multiple emancipations of women in the 1960s and beyond." -- Timothy Scott Brown, Professor and Chair of History, Northeastern University, USA "With A Women's History of the Beatles , Christine Feldman-Barrett has authored arguably the most significant title in Beatles scholarship since Tune In (2013), the first volume in Mark Lewisohn's groundbreaking biographical study of the group. ...
