SUMMARY:Quaff & Quill: Book Talk with Jacqueline Beatty
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Women’s History Month program with Professor Jacqueline Beatty (York College of Pennsylvania) about her new book In Dependence: Women and the Patriarchal State in Revolutionary America (2023) to learn about women’s agency in early America and how their dependent status – rather than their independent status – enabled them to achieve financial and legal protections. \nIn Dependence explores the ways in which women in Boston\, Philadelphia\, and Charleston manipulated their legal\, social\, and economic positions of dependence and turned these constraints into vehicles of female empowerment. Although the law and social custom established restrictions on women’s rights and behavior\, early American women were not completely powerless in their dependent state. By using legislative petitions\, divorce cases\, marriage settlements\, equity cases\, probate records\, manumission deeds\, freedom suits\, almshouse records\, and charitable institutional files\, In Dependence demonstrates that women defined their relationship with the patriarchal state—the colonial\, revolutionary\, and early national governments and organizations helmed by elite men—in terms of their multifaceted dependencies. \nLight refreshments will be served. \n  \nThis is a hybrid event. Please join us in person or online via Zoom. \nCLICK HERE FOR IN PERSON REGISTRATION\nThomas Paine Cottage Museum\n20 Sicard Avenue\nNew Rochelle\, NY 10804\nDriving Directions \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER FOR THE ZOOM WEBINAR \nPresented in partnership with the Huguenot & New Rochelle Historical Association
