HIST 3601 - Women in Modern European History, 1800-present


Will explore the role of women in western European society from the French Revolution to the present. In addition to examining how women have affected and been influenced by social, cultural, and political currents, we will investigate the place of women in historical literature, and how this role has changed over time. Of interest will be key individuals and women’s groups, as well as a more general consideration of women’s (and men’s) everyday lives. Through lectures, discussions, and assignments, we will be particularly attentive to questions of how best to view women as part of a larger historical narrative as the field of women’s and gender history relates to trends not only in the field of history but also in domestic and political developments, including women’s movements, arguments about gender and sexuality,
