520 1 |a "Etsuko Taketani's U.S. Women Writers and the Discourses of Colonialism, 1825-1861, an overdue examination of widely marginalized writings by women of the American antebellum period, presents a new model for evaluating U.S. relations and interactions with foreign countries in the colonial and postcolonial periods by examining the ways in which women writers were both proponents of colonization and subversive agents for change. In this two-part book Taketani explores attempts to inculcate imperialist values through education in the works of Lydia Maria Child, Sarah Tuttle, Catharine Beecher, and others and the results of viewing the world through these values, as reflected in the writings of Harriet Low, Emily Judson, and Sarah Hale."--Jacket.
