Description

Explore the history of the American family through the lens of nineteenth-century literature. This scholarly work from Routledge examines how authors of the period represented the maternal role, a position that gained new social prominence at the end of the eighteenth century. By studying the works of diverse writers, this book provides a deep look into the negotiations that occurred within the American sentiment movement. Readers can examine how maternal figures were constructed and understood through the writing of Harriet Beecher Stowe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Frederick Douglass, Harriet Jacobs, and Sarah Piatt. This text serves as a foundational resource for those interested in American popular history and culture. It offers a clear look at how literature helped shape the social expectations of motherhood during a transformative era in United States history.
