文章:

Line         Two works published in 1984 demonstrate
  contrasting approaches to writing the history of
  United States women. Buel and Buel’s biography
  of Mary Fish (1736–1818) makes little effort to
(5) place her story in the context of recent
  historiography on women. Lebsock, meanwhile,
  attempts not only to write the history of women in
  one southern community, but also to redirect two
  decades of historiographical debate as to
(10) whether women gained or lost status in the
  nineteenth century as compared with the
  eighteenth century. Although both books offer the
  reader the opportunity to assess this controversy
  regarding women’s status, only Lebsock’s deals with
(15) it directly. She examines several different aspects
  of women’s status, helping to refine and resolve the
  issues. She concludes that while
  women gained autonomy in some areas,
  especially in the private sphere, they lost it in
(20) many aspects of the economic sphere. More
  importantly, she shows that the debate itself
  depends on frame of reference: in many respects,
  women lost power in relation to men, for example,
  as certain jobs (delivering babies, supervising
(25) schools) were taken over by men. Yet women also
  gained power in comparison with their previous
  status, owning a higher proportion of real estate,
  for example. In contrast, Buel and Buel’s
  biography provides ample raw material for
(30) questioning the myth, fostered by some
  historians, of a colonial golden age in the
  eighteenth century but does not give the reader
  much guidance in analyzing the controversy over
  women’s status.
