Summary:
"
Nineteenth-century
New
Brunswick
society was dominated by white, Protestant, Anglophone men. Yet, during this time of state formation in Canada,
women
increasingly helped to define and shape a provincial outlook. I wish to keep a record is the first book to focus exclusively on the life-course experiences of
nineteenth-century
New
Brunswick
women
. Gail G. Campbell offers an interpretive scholarly analysis of 28
women
's diaries while enticing readers to listen to the voices of the
diarists
.
Their
diaries show
women
constructing themselves as individuals, assuming
their
essential place in building families and communities, and shaping
their
society by directing its outward gaze and envisioning its future. Campbell's lively analysis calls on scholars to distinguish between immigrant and native-born
women
and to move beyond present-day conceptions of such
women
's
world
. This unique study provides a framework for developing an understanding of
women
's worlds in
nineteenth-century
North America."--From publisher.
