Princess Isabel of Brazil
Author: Roderick J. Barman
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9780842028462
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Having specialized in the South American country for most of his academic career, Barman (history, U. of British Columbia) here integrates gender studies into his concerns. He extracts copiously from Isabel's (1846-1921) letters and recollections within the framework of a female life cycle. In addition to showing how women have been shaped by and have lived within cultural, social, and economic structures created by men and predicated on female subordination and exploitation, he uses the princess' life to illuminate the interplay of gender and power in the 19th century.
