Aprašymas
Crafting Womanhood addresses histories of women's education, property-ownership, antislavery organizing, and involvement in the suffrage movement, all through the lens of decorative needlework from the nineteenth to the early twentieth century. Paying particular attention to the intersecting dynamics of race, gender, and labor, this book argues that textiles were a key site through which women and girls constituted gender as semi-public and malleable.
