Writing While Female: How Women Wrote in Wright’s Time

  • Resumen

  • It’s easy to forget the limitations put on women’s basic intellectual development in Wright’s era, and how women experienced these limits. How did women write and speak publicly when this was very much discouraged—yet often practiced? Reflecting on educational literature of Wright’s time that articulated limited ambitions for girl’s intellects, how did real women navigate the tensions, contradictions, and hidden opportunities of these limitations? Our expert guest this week is Etta Madden, emerita professor at Missouri State University. This is a podcast about Frances Wright, reformer, philosopher, writer, activist, abolitionist before it was cool. Feminist long before the word existed. Want to go deeper?
