1830’S AMERICA Antebellum Revivalism & Reform

The Second Great Awakening “Spiritual Reform From Within” [Religious Revivalism] Social Reforms & Redefining the Ideal of Equality

ANTEBELLUM AMERICA The Pursuit of Perfection

Separate Spheres Concept Cult of Domesticity  A woman’s sphere was in the home  It was a refuge from the cruel outside world  Her role was to “civilize” her husband and family  A Massachusetts minister wrote in the 1830’s:  “The power of woman is her dependence. A woman who gives up that dependence on man to become a reformer yields the power God has given her for her protection, and her character becomes unnatural!”

Separate Spheres Concept Early 19 th Century Women:  Unable to vote.  Legal status of a minor.  If single could own her own property.  If married no control over her property or her children.  Could not initiate divorce.  Couldn’t make wills, sign a contract, or bring suit in court without her husband’s permission.
