Abstract
The aim of the article was to study different scientific approaches and methods of studying the problems of women’s everyday life in international historiography. In order to achieve the goal, a comparative analysis of studies on the history of women’s everyday life, which were published in different countries of the world, was carried out, as well as the themes of works and approaches used by scholars to study the topic. In parallel with the history of everyday life, such trends as micro and history, gender history, and women’s history developed in Western historiography. Historians representing these trends aimed to explore the history of the “little people” and those social groups that had long been overlooked by historiographers. In contemporary international historiography, among the studies devoted to the history of women’s everyday life, the works that cover women’s everyday life in the conditions of overcoming difficulties are predominant. This applies to women’s everyday life in times of war, as well as everyday life in totalitarian states. Also, common themes are those that cover the process of women’s emancipation, women’s struggle for equal rights with men and, as a result, changes in women’s everyday life in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
