Yet the vision of America as \"home\" was more than a metaphor for women's stake in the process of conquest -- it took deliberate work to create and uphold. Treating white and indigenous women's struggles as part of the same history, Jane E. Simonsen argues that as both cultural workers and domestic laborers insisted upon the value of their work to \"civilization,\" they exposed the inequalities integral to both the nation and the household.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Simonsen illuminates discussions about the value of women's work through analysis of texts and images created by writers, women's rights activists, reformers, anthropologists, photographers, field matrons, and Native American women. She argues that women such as Caroline Soule, Alice Fletcher, E. Jane Gay, Anna Dawson Wilde, and Angel DeCora called upon the rhetoric of sentimental domesticity, ethnographic science, public display, and indigenous knowledge as they sought to make the gendered and racial order of the nation visible through homes and the work performed in them. Focusing on the range of materials through which domesticity was produced in the West, Simonsen integrates new voices into the study of domesticity's imperial manifestations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb3 f6 mid-gray lh-title overflow-visible db\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"dangerous-html mb3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e and American Culture Making Home Work: Domesticity and Native American Assimilation in the American West, 1860-1919, (Paperback)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor: University of North Carolina Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9780807856956\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublication Date: 2006-05-15\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePage Count: 288\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ld_W ld_a bn bg-transparent dark-gray pa0 sans-serif mb3 lh-copy\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ld_Y\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ld_FS\"\u003einfo:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"ld_X\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"b\"\u003eWe aim to show you accurate product information. \u003c\/span\u003eManufacturers, suppliers and others provide what you see here, and we have not verified it.  \u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003csection data-dca-id=\"M:B6A5997B60\" data-dca-type=\"module\" data-dca-name=\"stickyATC\"\u003e\u003chr aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"ld_Aj\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"expand-collapse-section nl3 nr3 ph3\" id=\"specifications-wrapper\"\u003e\u003chr aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"Divider_divider__7bNsU\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"w-100 ma0 lh-copy normal pa3 f5\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"flex items-center mv0 lh-copy f5 pb1 dark-gray\"\u003eBook format\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"flex items-center mv0 lh-copy f5 pb1 dark-gray\"\u003eFiction\/nonfiction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eNon-Fiction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"flex items-center mv0 lh-copy f5 pb1 dark-gray\"\u003eGenre\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ePolitical \u0026amp; Social Sciences\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"flex items-center mv0 lh-copy f5 pb1 dark-gray\"\u003ePub date\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e2006-05-15\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"grapeseek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45477665210559,"sku":"26657759","price":9.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/0294\/0607\/files\/2tz0ukzmcnl5.jpg?v=1775720468","url":"https:\/\/grapeseek.com\/products\/gender-and-american-culture-making-home-work-domesticity-and-native-american-assimilation-in-the-american-west-1860-1919-paperback-9780807856956-26657759","provider":"grapeseek","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
