| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study analyzes the texts in antebellum America to show how domesticity configured the dominant middle-class white woman’s culture, involved with gender, race, and class. Using novels written by Sarah Josepha Hale, one of the most important domestic ideologues in the 19th-century America, my project elucidates that domesticity could expand woman’s sphere and their activism without any critical comments or direct accusations. Domesticity, eventually, became a rationale for white women, who had no political right but could act as what Hale calls "citizeness."
