Book excerpt: Excerpt from Unpublished Letters of Dolly Madison to Anthony Morris Relating to the Nourse Family of the Highlands Dolly Madison's name, to this day, conjures up dreams of charm and loveliness beyond those of any other woman of her generation. She was fascinating in her youth and her exciting and delightful personality lasted down through the years. As the wife of the fourth president of the United States she was the acknowledged leader of the society of the new nation. In that period, many of the forms and Observances which had prevailed in the days of a court circle still lingered, and despite the rulings of a democratic con gress against titles savoring of royalty, she was often spoken of as Her Majesty, perhaps as much in tribute to her loveliness as a mark of respect for her position.

Book First Ladies of the Republic

Download or read book First Ladies of the Republic written by Jeanne E. Abrams and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2019-11-15 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the three inaugural First Ladies defined the role for future generations, and carved a space for women in America America’s first First Ladies—Martha Washington, Abigail Adams, and Dolley Madison—had the challenging task of playing a pivotal role in defining the nature of the American presidency to a fledgling nation and to the world. In First Ladies of the Republic, Jeanne Abrams breaks new ground by examining their lives as a group. From their visions for the future of the burgeoning new nation and its political structure, to ideas about family life and matrimony, these three women had a profound influence on one another’s views as they created the new role of presidential spouse. Martha, Abigail and Dolley walked the fine line between bringing dignity to their lives as presidential wives, and supporting their husbands’ presidential agendas, while at the same time, distancing themselves from the behavior, customs and ceremonies that reflected the courtly styles of European royalty that were inimical to the values of the new republic. In the face of personal challenges, public scrutiny, and sometimes vocal criticism, they worked to project a persona that inspired approval and confidence, and helped burnish their husbands’ presidential reputations. The position of First Lady was not officially authorized or defined, and the place of women in society was more restricted than it is today. These capable and path-breaking women not only shaped their own roles as prominent Americans and “First Ladies,” but also defined a role for women in public and private life in America.
