Introduction to Part II
The essays in Part II of Reinterpreting the American Experience: Women, Gender, and American Studies further exemplify some of the themes that emerged in Part I. The "different voice" of women, for example, appears strongly in Catherine Lundie's discussion of ghost stories by American female writers, as does an emphasis on empathy as a mode of knowledge. The female protagonists in these stories are seldom really terrified by the ghosts they encou…
Introduction to Part I
More than many academic fields, American Studies has been open to the claims and approaches of gender, race, and ethnic studies. As Linda Kerber pointed out in her 1988 presidential address to the American Studies Association (Kerber 1989, 420), some of the major early essays in women's studies first appeared in an American Studies context. On the other hand, the decade in which American Studies first appeared strongly in the acad- emy—the 1950s—…

Race, Sex, and the Dimensions of Liberty in Antebellum America
The world has never had a good definition of the word 'liberty,' wrote Abraham Lincoln in 1864, the American people . . . are much in the want of one. In antebellum America the continued prominence of revolutionary traditions together with the existence of slavery made it tempting to celebrate liberty rather than probe deeply into its meaning. Yet the meaning of liberty was being explored, deepened, and extended in this period as new groups laid …

"Woman's Place" and the Search for Identity in Ante-Bellum America
This paper is intended as a tentative exploration of some ways in which the particular intellectual and cultural climate of ante-bellum America affected both the adjustment of middle-class men and women to one another and the development of a more acute self-consciousness among women about their identity and their role in society. The process of modernization gather- ing momentum in eighteenth-century America and Western Europe contributed two im…
