German-American women played many roles in the US women's rights
movement from 1848 to 1890. This book focuses on three
figures-Mathilde Wendt, Mathilde Franziska Anneke, and Clara
Neymann-who were simultaneously included and excluded from the
nativist women's rights movement. Accordingly, their roles and
arguments differed from those of their American colleagues, such as
Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, or Lucy Stone. Moreover,
German-American feminists were confronted with the opposition to
the women's rights movement in their ethnic community of
German-Americans. As outsiders in the women's rights movement they
became critics; as "women of two countries" they became translators
of feminist and ethnic concerns between German- Americans and the
US women's rights movement; and as messengers they could bridge the
gap between American and German women in a transatlantic space.
This book explores the relationship between ethnicity and gender
and deepens our understanding of nineteenth-century transatlantic
relationships.
