LETTER TO THE FRIENDS CONTENTS

Dear Friends of Fondren, The History of Women in America

Every time I hear FRIENDS, somehow, I think of religious Megan Seaholm groups. And, since we bibliophiles didn't get together as a religious group maybe we should consider changing our name to

1. Line backers of the Rice Library, Comics and Cartoons 2. Library supporters (but this sounds like part of an athletic Robert Boyd uniform), 3.

The history of women in America is one of the new interpretations of American culture. frontiers in the study of history. It is important for the As indicated by the bibliography, the collection elucidation of women's lives and for its impact on contains monographs and anthologies. Most of the related fields such as the history of the family or the works in the collection have been published as history of reform movements. As a feminist and a recently as the 1970s. This reflects the young nature historian, I find the work being done in women's of this field. There are titles in the collection, history to be very exciting. Moreover, the quality of however, that date back to 1946 and the late 1950s. I the scholarship is quite impressive and has facilitated look forward to adding to my collection as the field of recognition of the legitimacy and importance of this women's history continues to grow. area of study. My collection includes some of the best of the recent scholarship on women in America. It also demonstrates the depth of this new area of study. For example, the collection is not limited by region or chronology. There are books which focus on the experience of women in New England, women in the West, and women in the South. Spruill and Norton, for example, deal with women during the colonial period while Sklar and Leach focus on women in the nineteenth century. Banner, Blair, and Lemons dis- cuss women in the twentieth century.

Neither is the collection limited to a particular class

or race. The growing field of women's history is to be commended for avoiding the ethnocentric error of studying only white middle class women. Kessler- Harris, for one, studies working class women. Matthaei looks at women of all classes in her eco- nomic history. Bettina Aptheker writes about black women and discusses issues of race and class. Several anthologized articles deal with women of various ethnic groups or of varying economic circumstances. Initially, the most frequently written about topic in women's history was the history of woman suffrage. In recent years, however, historians have moved be- yond the political history of women in America to consider the intellectual history, the economic his- tory, the medical history, and the social history of the female population of the United States. My collection contains several near-classic works on the suffrage campaign and the nineteenth century women's rights

movement. It also contains works, such as Rosen- berg's, that trace the intellectual history of modern feminism. There are several books which discuss the social history of women, the context and texture of their daily lives. There are books and anthologized articles that consider the place of women vis a vis the medical profession and which look at women's health

Class of 1986; undergraduate uinner of the Friends of Fondren Student Book Collectors' Contest, 1984-1985.

Single panel cartoons have existed for centuries, comic strips for about a century and comic books for about sixty years. It is amazing that during this time almost no one has studied them from a formal point of view as an art. No doubt comics have been praised as "art" and comic strip artists have been awarded honors like the Pulitzer Prize. It is, however, the contents of the comics which are praised. The politics of political cartoons, the humor of daily comic strips, and the adventure and excitement of comic books are the aspects most studied, and yet in the cases of the few works of genius in the field, these aspects are merely surface attributes. Comics, like film, involve the juxtaposition of images in time, which is to say one reads one panel after another. In newspaper comics, this is straight- forward; but in comic books, where larger page affords more freedom for the artist, the panels can be ordered differently, overlapped, inset, violated by their subjects, etc. Going back to the film analogy, these effects might correspond to nonsequential editing, rapid crosscutting, cutaway shots, etc. Such artists as Will Eisner, Winsor McCay, Doug Hanson the medium of comics advanced slowly. But comic and George Herriman have advanced the medium of book and strip artists could not avoid assimilating the comics as much as D. W. Griffith, Sergei Eisenstien, conventions of their predecessors, and the best would Luis Bunuel or Jean Luc Goddard have advanced expand and explode these conventions. filmmaking.

Class of 1985; undergraduate winner of The Friends of key exception is the works of Lucian, who expanded Fondren Student Book Collectors' Contest, 1985. upon the myth of Elysium and influenced later Utopian authors such as More.

After surveying my own collection, I initially relied on Glenn Robert Negley's Quest for Utopia (a Fondren Who doesn't have access to a Bible or a copy of the title) to learn more about the genre. Ultimately, Frank Odyssey? One wouldn't necessarily classify these and Fritzie Manuel's Utopian Thought in the Western works with Plato's Republic or Bacon's New Atlantis as World became my source for identifying titles, au- far as precise Utopian detailing. None the less, the thors, and expressions of Utopian literature. 1 have Garden of Eden and the Elysian Fields are outstanding included the Manuel's work in my collection because examples of the place that Sir Thomas More described of its topical relevance and recommend it as a in Latin as "not place."

Any late night movie buff has travelled to Shangri-La in the Columbia Pictures production of Lost Horizon, and the greatest team in stage history, Gilbert and Sullivan, produced Utopian Ltd. Most of us are better acquainted with Utopia than we realize and may already have substantial collections of works with Utopian descriptions or themes. I only began to notice the extent of my collection during my junior year when, with one week left before the close of 1983, 1 took it upon myself to read Nineteen Eighry-

Fomt. Intrigued by its theme, I followed it up with

Huxley's Brai>e New World. Where could I find more?

It was from this start that I begin to pursue and develop my own Utopian collection, one which I am continually augmenting even today. Surprisingly enough, my own bookshelf turned out to be a best source for Utopias and dystopias (the totalitarian antithesis of a Utopia). Animal Farm had been re- quired reading in high school. My first political theory course required portions of the Republic. I had studied Utopian works such as The Phenomenon of Man, Looking Baclucard, and the Politics in a broad range of disciplines, respectively, religious studies, history, and philosophy.

The more 1 delved into this field the more fasci- nating it became. For instance, an interesting aspect of this genre was the list of authors, all known for differing literary styles, each of whom had written his own Utopia, e.g., Hawthorne, Twain, London, and C.S. Lewis. My collection includes many of the classics, though

some notable exceptions do exist. I am particularly piqued at being unable to locate a copy of native Houstonian Edward Mandell House's Philip Dru Administrator. Colonel House has been a historical interest of mine for several semesters; and as President

Wilson's personal confidant, he is often credited with being the unelected half of the duumvirate which ran America during the Wilson administration. Another
