The American Revolution: Impact on Women

a) One major difference between Elaine Crane's and Rosemarie Zagarri's historical interpretations of the immediate impact of the American Revolution on women is:

Whereas, Crane argues that the American Revolution did not improve the societal status of women, with their gender roles remaining unchanged.  

Zagarri, on the other hand, argues that the American Revolution improved the societal status and influence of women, giving them more visibility in society.

b) One event, development, or circumstance from the period 1765 to 1800 that could be used to support Crane's argument or position is:

women could not participate in political decision-making after the American Revolution, and did not enjoy the rights accorded to their male counterparts.

c) One event, development, or circumstance from the period 1765 to 1800 that could be used to support Zagarri's argument or stance is:

many women, including Abigail Adams, Elizabeth Freeman, Mercy Warren, etc., made their voices heard in political circles and galvanized women to demand better political treatment.

Explanation:

Elaine Crane in her "Women, Seaports, and Social Change" (1998) argued vehemently that the American Revolution did not provide women the radical watershed they required to play active political roles in society.  However, Rosemarie Zagarri, writing in "Women and Politics in the Early American Republic" (2007), perceived the American Revolution's impact on women differently.  She praised the new opportunities that were created for women to participate actively in politics.
