HST 368 - History of Feminist Thought
3 credits C
Most people do not know that the earliest writings about the situation of women are from Ancient Greece. Nor are they aware just how radical some of the earliest feminists and proto-feminists were, some of whom were writing when women were confined to the home and denied the opportunity to speak in public. Indeed, the act of writing about the situation of women was often an act of resistance in itself. Learning about the history of feminist thought and the ways that early feminists dealt with some of the issues still faced by women gives a greater insight into contemporary feminist thought. It also makes us realize just how much women have achieved and how much there is still left to do. This course examines proto-feminist and feminist thought from ancient Greece to the early 1900's. The course will also examine the ways in which some early feminist thought and activism intersected with other political goals and movements, such as the anti-slavery movement or the pacifist movement. In addition, the goals of activist movements and an analysis of their different methods will be explored.

WMS 368 - History of Feminist Thought
3 credits C
Most people do not know that the earliest writings about the situation of women are from Ancient Greece. Nor are they aware just how radical some of the earliest feminists and proto-feminists were, some of whom were writing when women were confined to the home and denied the opportunity to speak in public. Indeed, the act of writing about the situation of women was often an act of resistance in itself. Learning about the history of feminist thought and the ways that early feminists dealt with some of the issues still faced by women gives a greater insight into contemporary feminist thought. It also makes us realize just how much women have achieved and how much there is still left to do. This course examines proto-feminist and feminist thought from ancient Greece to the early 1900s. The course will also examine the ways in which some early feminist thought and activism intersected with other political goals and movements, such as the anti-slavery movement or the pacifist movement. In addition, the goals of activist movements and an analysis of their different methods will be explored.
