Abstract This article draws on the writing of Rose Macaulay (1881–1958), to examine how this notable British feminist journalist and public intellectual addressed domesticity for her public’s entertainment and instruction. In the 1920s, when Macaulay was consolidating her literary celebrity, she constructed her public persona from her life as an unattached woman, stressing her social independence and her intellectual freedom in her journalism. Yet she made her home the centre of her art, on her own terms. This article argues that Macaulay repudiated the assumption that as a woman she should be interested in or even expert in the domestic arts, and shows how she articulated resistance to social conventions around domesticity.

家就是艺术所在：罗斯·麦考利对家庭生活的抵制

摘要 本文借鉴了罗斯·麦考利（Rose Macaulay，1881-1958 年）的著作，考察了这位著名的英国女权主义记者和公共知识分子如何为公众的娱乐和指导而解决家庭问题。在 1920 年代，当麦考利巩固她的文学名人时，她从她作为一个独立女性的生活中构建了她的公众形象，在她的新闻工作中强调了她的社会独立和知识自由。然而，她以她自己的方式让她的家成为她艺术的中心。这篇文章认为，麦考利否定了作为女性应该对家庭艺术感兴趣甚至是专家的假设，并展示了她如何表达对围绕家庭生活的社会习俗的抵制。
