- 초록/해제
- 요약 : As a segment of American society far from the cultural supports of home, missionary women present an opportunity to examine the transforming zeal of antebellum American society at a time when the United States was driven by an expansionist spirit. American women went forth to regenerate not only America but the world.
- 초록/해제
- 요약 : My dissertation,"'That Our Daughters May Be as Corner Stones': American Missionaries, Bulgarian Nationalists, and the Politics of Gender, 1832-1872," illuminates the efforts of American Protestant missionaries to forge a Protestant Reformation in the Eastern Orthodox Church. In the imperial contest for souls and minds that took place in the Ottoman Empire in the mid-nineteenth century, mission strategy was to drive a wedge of female reform by training Bulgarian girls as mothers and teachers to be vanguards of moral, intellectual, and spiritual renewal in the emerging Bulgarian nation. The missionaries' ideological model was the educated Christian mother as the cornerstone of society. Their institutional model was Mount Holyoke Female Seminary. This case study integrates American sources that reveal the religious and cultural sensibilities of the missionaries with Bulgarian sources that demonstrate the extent of American antebellum gender ideology in the Bulgarian public sphere.
- 초록/해제
- 요약 : Antebellum missionary women were successful agents of American civil society abroad. Their educational projects resonated among educated urban Bulgarians in a period of emerging Bulgarian nationalism. Bulgarian men of letters refashioned the Protestant model of educated Christian womanhood in debates on the “woman question" to promote ideas of progress and modernity. Bulgarian schools for girls used the Mount Holyoke model as a project for emulation and a simultaneous site of resistance to the Protestant religious message. Bulgarian women internalized the model of the educated Christian mother as they formed maternal associations to advocate female education, building a base for their entry into the public sphere to work in the cause of the nation. However, Bulgarian women also came to resist American Protestant and Ottoman imperial projects as their public activism became a celebration of both Eastern Orthodoxy and Bulgarian nationhood.
