商品簡介
Margaret Griffis (1838-1913) and Dora Schoonmaker (1851-1934), in traveling to Meiji Japan to teach in the 1870s, created opportunities that were not available to other women educators at the time, much less most American middle-class women of their background. Eder (education policy and leadership, U. of Maryland) explores the social context surrounding their decision to become teachers and to travel to Japan, examines the opportunities the travels created, and discusses constraints imposed upon them by dominant gender ideologies and other factors upon their return.
