After the Fact Interactive: From Rosie to Lucy
This module invites students to investigate the dramatic shifts
for women from the exigencies of wartime employment symbolized by Rosie
the Riveter during World War II to the cultural pressures of domestic life
dramatized by the nation's favorite television wife and mother, Lucille
Ball. Recent works in women's history and primary sources will show how
women faced on one level a turbulent symbolic battle over the ideal of femininity
and on another level were coping with surprisingly steady but nonetheless
dramatic changes in employment and social conditions.
