Document Summary
Called the girls and the computers they were the ones integral to the developed of digital computation. Lines written a few miles above tintern abbey. Tintern abbey: five years have passed; five summer, with the length romantic poets on the love of nature. Girls were educated at home: music, french (their job was to find a good husband, not learn calculus) Botanists and others had wives as helpmates": young boys were employed as chimney sweepers: all kinds of child labor occurring. Too much education for girls not a good thing! Part of the social construction of femininity. A way to teach moral lessons (friendship, modesty, virtue) Children were wage earners for lower class families. In an effort to stop child labor: government established rules that children must attend school (until the age of 10 for ex) children were working as hard as the parents were. But botanical illustration was a way for some women to make money.
