Abstract/Notes: "...The opening event was the luncheon on September 14, at the Inside Inn, the great hotel inside the exposition gates. The immense dining room was jammed with 1,000 women, and many more would have come had there been possible space. San Francisco women flocked by the score in honor of the visiting delegates, whether keenly interested in the convention or not. Mrs. Fremont Older, wife of the editor of one of San Francisco's newspapers, was the toastmistress. Mrs. Belmont made the opening speech, sounding the keynote of the convention unmistakably clear. Other among the speakers were Dr. Yami Kim, of China; Mme. Maria Montessori, of Italy, and Mabel Taliaferro."

Women Curriculum Theorists: Power, Knowledge and Subjectivity

See More

Abstract/Notes: Most published bodies of work relating to curriculum theory focus exclusively, or almost exclusively, on the contributions of men. This is not representative of influences on educational practices as a whole, and it is certainly not representative of educational theory generally, as women have played a significant role in framing the theory and practice of education in the past. Their contribution is at least equal to that of men, even though it may not immediately appear as visible on library shelves or lecture lists. This book addresses this egregious deficit by asking readers to engage in an intellectual conversation about the nature of women’s curriculum theory, as well as its impact on society and thought in general. It does this by examining the work of twelve women curriculum theorists: Maxine Greene, Susan Haack, Julia Kristeva, Martha Nussbaum, Nel Noddings, Jane Roland Martin, Marie Battiste, Dorothea Beale, Susan Isaacs, Maria Montessori, Mary Warnock and Lucy Diggs Slowe. It thus brings attention, through a semantic rendition of the world, those seminal relationships that exist between the three meta-concepts that are addressed in the work: feminism, learning and curriculum. It will appeal to scholars and researchers with interests in curriculum, and the philosophy and sociology of education.

Of Natural Science, Women's History, and Montessori's Theory of Knowledge

Abstract/Notes: Kathleen Allen's reverence for the stories of women naturalists spanning from the seventeenth through the twentieth centuries, and their parallel scientific interest in the documentation of life cycles through art and narratives, gives support to the child in history and nature that is so central to Montessori formal research and discipline. The parade of nearly a dozen short bios, from Beatrix Potter to Rachel Carson, frames not only a fresh outlook on science but also brings a soft feminist philosophical outlook while highlighting Montessori's connections to the natural world.This chapter is based on a talk presented at the NAMTA conference titled "Montessori History: Searching for Evolutionary Scientific Truth" in Cleveland, Ohio, April 20--22, 2018.
