"Farnham has uncovered a wealth of information about a virtually untouched topic." - Joan Hoff, Professor of History, Indiana University, Co-editor, The Journal of Women's History, "Farnham has uncovered a wealth of information about a virtually untouched topic." -Joan Hoff,Professor of History, Indiana University, Co-editor, The Journal of Women's History, "A highly readable investigation of [the] mores and systems of education that prepared women for a life of the mind, while at the same time indoctrinating them for conventional roles as wives and mothers." - Booklist ,, A highly readable investigation of [the] mores and systems of education that prepared women for a life of the mind, while at the same time indoctrinating them for conventional roles as wives and mothers., "What Phillip Brian Harper makes of his personal encounters-whether with a hustler, a homeless man, a panicky straight guy at the gym, or with the racism of Andrew Sullivan's forecast of the end of AIDS-is of utmost public significance. His Private Affairs teaches us how thoroughly complex is the negotiation of privacy and publicity when we attend to gender and sexuality, race and class." - Douglas Crimp, "A highly readable investigation of [the] mores and systems of education that prepared women for a life of the mind, while at the same time indoctrinating them for conventional roles as wives and mothers." -Booklist, "Full of valuable new insights, Private Affairs is a necessary addition to contemporary debates about citizenship and identity. Harper challenges our tendency to see racial identity as public and sexuality as private. Instead he argues that in both cases the public demands of civic duty collide with private knowledges, and that each is necessary to realize the other." - Cindy Patton, author of Inventing AIDS, "Farnham has uncovered a wealth of information about a virtually untouched topic."- Joan Hoff, Professor of History, Indiana University, Co-editor,The Journal of Women's History

Synopsis
Provides us with an intimate picture of the social experience of antebellum women's colleges and seminaries in the South, analyzing the impact of these colleges upon the cultural construction of femininity among white Southern women, and their legacy for higher education. This book also examines the impact of slavery on faculty and students., "A highly readable investigation of the] mores and systems of education that prepared women for a life of the mind, while at the same time indoctrinating them for conventional roles as wives and mothers." -Booklist "Farnham has uncovered a wealth of information about a virtually untouched topic." -Joan Hoff, Professor of History, Indiana University, Co-editor, The Journal of Women's History The American South before the Civil War was the site of an unprecedented social experiment in women's education. The South offered women an education explicitly designed to be equivalent to that of men, while maintaining and nurturing the gender conventions epitomized by the ideal of the Southern belle. This groundbreaking work provides us with an intimate picture of the entire social experience of antebellum women's colleges and seminaries in the South, analyzing the impact of these colleges upon the cultural construction of femininity among white Southern women, and their legacy for higher education. Christie Farnham investigates the contradiction involved in using a male-defined curriculum to educate females, and explores how educators denied these incongruities. She also examines the impact of slavery on faculty and students. The emotional life of students is revealed through correspondence, journals, and scrapbooks, highlighting the role of sororities and romantic friendships among female pupils. Farnham ends with an analysis of how the end of the Civil War resulted in a failure to keep up with the advances that had been achieved in women's education. The most comprehensive history of this brief and unique period of reform to date, The Education of the Southern Belle is must reading for anyone interested in women's studies, Southern history, the history of American education, and female friendship., The American South before the Civil War was the site of an unprecedented social experiment in women's education.
