Passage 1
During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, almost nothing was written
about the contributions of women during the colonial period and the early history of
the newly formed United States. Lacking the right to vote and absent from the seats
of power, women were not considered an important force in history. Anne
Bradstreet wrote some significant poetry in the seventeenth century, Mercy Otis
Warren produced the best contemporary history of the American Revolution, and
Abigail Adams penned important letters showing she exercised great political
influence over her husband, John, the second President of the United States. But
little or no notice was taken of these contributions. During these centuries, women
remained invisible in history books.
Throughout the nineteenth century, this lack of visibility continued, despite the
efforts of female authors writing about women. These writers, like most of their
male counterparts, were amateur historians. Their writings were celebratory in
nature, and they were uncritical in their selection and use of sources.
During the nineteenth century, however, certain feminists showed a keen sense
of history by keeping records of activities in which women were engaged. National,
regional, and local women's organizations compiled accounts of their doings.
Personal correspondence, newspaper clippings, and souvenirs were saved and
stored. These sources from the core of the two greatest collections of women's
history in the United States one at the Elizabeth and Arthur Schlesinger Library at
Radcliffé College, and the other the Sophia Smith Collection at Smith College.
