Escaped Nuns: True Womanhood and the Campaign Against Convents in Antebellum America
Yacovazzi, Cassandra L. (Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow, Department of History, Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow, Department of History, University of Missouri, Columbia)
On the eve of the Civil War, Awful Disclosures of the Hotel Dieu, a convent exposé by a fraudulent "escaped nun" Maria Monk, captivated readers. The book served as a centerpiece for a larger campaign against convents, marked by riots, propaganda, and nativist politics, and reflected deep concerns regarding women, religious life, and the fate of the Republic.
