Line Linda Kerber argued in the mid-1980s that after
the American Revolution (1775–1783), an ideology
of “republican motherhood” resulted in a surge of
educational opportunities for women in the United
(5) States. Kerber maintained that the leaders of
the new nation wanted women to be educated in
order to raise politically virtuous sons. A virtuous
citizenry was considered essential to the success
of the country's republican form of government;
(10) virtue was to be instilled not only by churches and
schools, but by families, where the mother's role
was crucial. Thus, according to Kerber, motherhood
became pivotal to the fate of the republic, providing
justification for an unprecedented attention to female
(15) education.
Introduction of the “republican motherhood”
thesis dramatically changed historiography. Prior
to Kerber's work, educational historians barely
mentioned women and girls; Thomas Woody's
(20) 1929 work is the notable exception. Examining
newspaper advertisements for academies, Woody
found that educational opportunities increased for
both girls and boys around 1750. Pointing to “An
Essay on Woman” (1753) as reflecting a shift in
(25) view, Woody also claimed that practical education
for females had many advocates before the
Revolution. Woody's evidence challenges the notion
that the Revolution changed attitudes regarding
female education, although it may have accelerated
(30) earlier trends. Historians’ reliance on Kerber's
“republican motherhood” thesis may have obscured
the presence of these trends, making it difficult
to determine to what extent the Revolution really
changed women's lives.
