Across historical periods and geographies, women have long played a vital role as activists in revolutionary movements, and yet also routinely been obliterated from conventional historical accounts. Focusing on revolutions as diverse as in the American Colonies, England, France, Honduras, Guatemala, and Haiti, this course examines the critical yet often undocumented and undervalued role of revolutionary women. Students will learn about the lives and activism of recently rediscovered women, including but not limited to Olympe de Gouges, Manon Roland, Sophie de Groucy, Catharine Macaulay, Mary Wollstonecraft, Mary Hays, Manuela Sáenz De Thorne, and Suzanne Sanité Belair. In addition, students will refine their own historical research and investigative skills with the aim of undercovering new female figures in a revolutionary history. A key component of the course is producing an original biographical entry on a previously unknown or under-researched woman for The New Historia, an online platform and laboratory of feminist historical recovery (thenewhistoria.org).
