Sp16-AMSTUD-161-01 : Women in Modern America. 2016 Spring - Stanford University. Department of American Studies; Freedman, Estelle (Stanford University Syllabi (SC1454), 2016)
This course explores the transition from Victorian to modern womanhood in the U.S. from the 1890s to the end of the 20th century, including the experiences of Native, European, African, Mexican, and Asian American women. It asks how, when, and why the majority of American women become wage earners, gained full citizenship, and enacted political opportunities; how race- and class-specific ideals of womanhood changed in popular culture; and how women have redefined their reproductive and sexual relations.
