“Renew my will from day to day.

Blend it with thine, and take away

all that new makes it hard to say

Thy will be done.”

December 17, 1863

Susanna Gordon Waddell transcribed the above passage in her diary to reflect her pervading belief and conviction: a resignation to God’s will. She does not indicate the author of the verse, and it so aptly describes the beliefs expressed in her diary she may have written it herself. Interestingly, this particular passage contains an inherent contradiction. The prayer asks God to renew my will while simultaneously asking that it be taken …

Fannie’S Flirtations: Etiquette, Reality, And The Age Of Choice, Sue Lynn Mcdaniel Jan 1995

Fannie’S Flirtations: Etiquette, Reality, And The Age Of Choice, Sue Lynn Mcdaniel

SCL Faculty and Staff Publications

The 1890s were, for bright young females, an age of choice. Despite admonitions that flirting would ruin their reputations, many south central Kentucky adolescents enjoyed courtship rituals and remained highly respected in their communities. For every Charlotte Perkins Gilman with a mission set on advancing the status of women within our society, numerous females existed simply to enjoy life’s fullness and frivolity. Fannie Morton Bryan’s life story, as told through her diaries and newspaper accounts, gives readers a glimpse of the many rather than the few, the fun-loving rather than the serious-minded, and the old maid flirt in the largest …

Images Of Women In The Nineteenth-Century Anglo-Saxon Revival, Karen Louise Foster Jan 1992

Images Of Women In The Nineteenth-Century Anglo-Saxon Revival, Karen Louise Foster

Archived Theses and Dissertations

Nineteenth-century interest in the late Anglo-Saxon, or pre-conquest woman has been almost entirely erased from literary history. This dissertation recovers nineteenth century interest in the late Anglo-Saxon woman (between the eighth and eleventh centuries) in an analytical and descriptive survey which points out nineteenth-century roots of twentieth-century biases that continue to shape Anglo-Saxon scholarship. Nineteenth-century writers recovered Anglo-Saxon portrayals of women in various ways: by writing histories of Anglo-Saxon times; through translation of Beowulf, Judith, Juliana and Elene; and in writing historical fiction. In every instance, recovery meant reconstruction of the past. Nineteenth-century reconstructions of the Anglo-Saxon time period have …
