19th Century Women: Domestic or Discontented? (March Power of Voice Discussion)
NOTE: This discussion group will be HYBRID at the Walnut Hills Branch Library and also via Zoom.
Praise for the "True Woman" by Catharine Beecher, her sister Harriet, and many others sought to elevate the status of women by celebrating their roles at home as wives and mothers, but this ideal was used to confine women to subservience at home and deny them freedom outside it. We'll consider how the stories of three woman authors of the nineteenth century, including Harriet herself, reflect on the ideal of the True Woman and also speak to our time.
