HS 341 - American Women’s History: Beyond Sisterhood

Institution:

Franklin Pierce University

Subject:

Description:

The rise of a feminist consciousness in the mid-twentieth century laid the foundation for the concurrent development of Women’s History as a legitimate historical field of inquiry. Through a selection of readings and written projects, this course explores the parameters of American women’s experience from the seventeenth century through to the present day. In its focus on American women’s historical experience, the course is envisaged as a concerted effort to evaluate the larger issues of diversity, “sisterhood,” and the issue of equality. Prerequisite: WL115 or HS200-level course or permission of instructor.
