초록

The historiography of the American women’s suffrage movement in the nineteenth century is marked by the rise and fall of its master narrative. Since the feminist movement and women’s history were established simultaneously in the 1960s, the scholarship of the women’s suffrage movement has reflected specific agendas of feminist politics of each age. In the late 1960s and 1970s, feminist historians invented the master narrative by conceptualizing the suffrage movement as first-wave feminism. After the late 1970s, scholars of race and racism began retrieving African American women’s contributions to the suffrage movement, and since the mid-1990s, historians have expanded the scope of the suffrage movement by rediscovering its richer traditions. This recent tendency has raised fundamental questions regarding the legitimacy of the waves metaphor as a conceptual device. Facing these questions, the master narrative is being gradually undermined in the scholarship of the suffrage movement and American women’s history in general.

Abstract

The historiography of the American women’s suffrage movement in the nineteenth century is marked by the rise and fall of its master narrative. Since the feminist movement and women’s history were established simultaneously in the 1960s, the scholarship of the women’s suffrage movement has reflected specific agendas of feminist politics of each age. In the late 1960s and 1970s, feminist historians invented the master narrative by conceptualizing the suffrage movement as first-wave feminism. After the late 1970s, scholars of race and racism began retrieving African American women’s contributions to the suffrage movement, and since the mid-1990s, historians have expanded the scope of the suffrage movement by rediscovering its richer traditions. This recent tendency has raised fundamental questions regarding the legitimacy of the waves metaphor as a conceptual device. Facing these questions, the master narrative is being gradually undermined in the scholarship of the suffrage movement and American women’s history in general.
