- Description
- Description of the professional lives of women educators and the extent to which they challenged the gendered terrain they occupied. The emphasis is on women's historical public voices and their own interpretation of their 'selves' and 'lives' in their struggle to exercise authority in education at a particular historical moment and in a particular culture. Pays attention to: Home Scientists at the University of New Zealand: Canadian Women Religious, International Connections, Ecclesiastical Webs and the Secular State: University Education in Ireland: a Maori Educational Leader: a headmistress of a high school in London: Mary Gutteridge (1887–1962): Henrietta Rodman's leadership in the New York City campaigns for the marriage and maternity rights of teachers.
