Purdue University How Did Women Act Based on their Identity Discussion
Question Description
I’m working on a history writing question and need an explanation to help me understand better.
From the eighteenth century through early twentieth century, women of all classes and races were confronted with an idealized understanding of womanhood, often informed by religious belief. An important question we can ask of the articles is, why is respectability so important to women?Another is how did women act based on their identity? To answer these questions, use, Emily Clark and Virginia Meacham Gould,Carroll Smith Rosenberg, Suellen Hoy, andBrenda E. Stevensons articles in some way. Include the primary document, Extracts from Report of Visiting Committee,Advocate of Moral Reform and Family Guardian, as well. You may use Gerda Lerners article and Jill Lepores podcast if you wish, but you are not required to.
