Abstract (latvian):: Sieviešu žurnāls “Zeltene” pētītajā periodā (1926–1934) sievietēm bija ceļvedis divās jomās – gan sniedza praktiskus padomus mājsaimniecībā, gan norādīja ceļu, kādā sieviete var kļūt par ideālu jaunās Latvijas valsts pilsoni. Piemēram, raksti par attiecībām uzsvērti aicināja sievietes pievērsties ģimenes dzīvei. Bērni tika uzlūkoti kā laulības stabilitātes un latviešu nācijas uzplaukuma garants, tādējādi to audzināšana latviskā garā bija sievietes svarīgākais pienākums. Vienlaikus viņas pārziņā bija latviskas mājvietas iekārtošana un tautas tradīcijām atbilstoša dzīvesveida organizēšana kopumā. Ideālai latvietei žurnāla uzskatā bija jāpilda šie pienākumi nācijas vārdā.
Abstract (english):: The Latvian women’s magazine “Zeltene” (1926–1934) served two functions: Besides offering women practical advice, such as how to dress, cook, and raise children, it seemingly promoted nationalistic goals. Firstly, relationship articles called on women to give birth to more children to guarantee a stable family life and assure the future of the Latvian nation. Secondly, work at home was presented not just as a practical activity but also as an excellent way to revitalize the Latvian lifestyle. The ideal Latvian woman needed to fulfill both of these expectations.
