Description | Kowal examines the speeches and writings of Emma Goldman within the context of shifting gender roles in early twentieth-century America. As the notorious leader of the American anarchist movement, Emma Goldman captured newspaper headlines across the country as she urged audiences to reject authority and aspire for individual autonomy. A public woman in a time when to be public and a woman was a paradox, Goldman spoke and wrote openly about distinctly private matters, including sexuality, free love, and birth control. Recognizing women s bodies as a site of struggle for autonomy, she created a discursive space for women to engage in the public sphere and act as sexual agents. |
