  American Revolution | Part 7 | Republican motherhood and the long impact of the Revolution (with Carol Berkin) 15.08.2026 47мин

  Republican motherhood is a fundamental concept of the early American republic. Women's political power, it argues, is exercised not at the ballot box but in their own separate sphere, where they raise good little patriots. Carol Berkin concludes our series with a look at the long impact of the American revolution for women and connects the dots with the United States' current political landscape, 250 years on. ★ Support this podcast ★ On this episode: Isabelle Roughol - Host Carol Berkin - Guest Click here to watch on Youtube.

  American Revolution | Part 6 | Mercy Otis Warren and the female politicians (with Rosemarie Zagarri) 08.08.2026 50мин

  Mercy Otis Warren was what the Revolution called a "female politician" – a woman who cared about and discussed politics, a wholly new archetype for American society then. Her poems, plays and pamphlets – and ultimately her 3-volume history of the revolution – established her as a key political thinker of the movement for independence. But she walked a fine line: she never meant to "transgress the boundaries of (her) sex" and always thought of herself as a wife and mother first. To discuss her life and women's part in the political philosophy of the revolution, I'm joined by Mercy's biographer, Rosemarie Zagarri.Read the books🇺🇸 Buy Rosemarie Zagarri's books in the USA Woman's Dilemma: Mercy Otis Warren and the American Revolution: https://bookshop.org/a/79408/9781118775011Revolutionary Backlash: Women and Politics in the Early American Republic: https://bookshop.org/a/79408/9780812220735🇬🇧 Buy Rosemarie Zagarri's books in the UKA Woman's Dilemma: Mercy Otis Warren and the American Revolution: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/9178/9781118775011Revolutionary Backlash: Women and Politics in the Early American Republic: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/9178/9781666133929(Affiliate bookshop.org links support Broad History and indie bookstores.) ★ Support this podcast ★ On this episode: Isabelle Roughol - Host Rosemarie Zagarri - Guest Click here to watch on Youtube.

  American Revolution | Part 2 | What Abigail Adams really meant by "Remember the ladies" (with Woody Holton) 11.07.2026 54мин

  Abigail Adams made a killing in war bonds (and possibly a bit of insider trading). She used John Adams' diplomatic posting to import luxury goods from France and resell them at an insane markup. She's the reason her civil servant husband, unlike many of the founding fathers, did not die in massive debt. But as a married woman, she could not own anything in her own name or keep the proceeds of her clever investments. Her famous "Remember the ladies" was not, her biographer Woody Holton argues, a call for women's right to vote. Rather it was a plea to free women from the tyranny of bad husbands and from having their fate decided by the lottery of marriage. Meet Abigail Adams, loving partner, flawed mother, financial capitalist and women's advocate. ★ Support this podcast ★ Get the book🇺🇸 "Abigail Adams: A Life" and "Liberty is Sweet" by Woody Holton🇬🇧 "Liberty is Sweet" by Woody Holton.

  American Revolution | Part 1 | The political awakening of American women (with Carol Berkin) 04.07.2026 58мин

  The most radical thing about the American Revolution? The sudden politicisation of colonial women, argues Dr Carol Berkin, author of "Revolutionary Mothers" and one of the preeminent historians of women in the early United States. Women were the main organisers of the boycotts of British goods, which fanned the flames of revolution. They were involved in every aspect of the war – except in high politics, from which they were barred.Sign up for the newsletter at www.broadhistory.com. Listen early and without ads.

  The Real American Frontier | Part 2 | The homesteaders trad wives would rather forget about (with Megan Kate Nelson) 06.06.2026 35мин

  In part 2 of our exploration of the American frontier, Megan Kate Nelson introduces two women who belie the homesteader image conservative "trad wives" like to harken back to. Polly Bemis was a Chinese immigrant who built a life and a community in Idaho, despite intense prejudice and stringent anti-Chinese immigration policies. Ella Watson was a self-made homesteader and small rancher, a so-called cattle queen who got on the wrong side of cattle barons in Wyoming and paid the price.Read more: How Chinese women were barred from the American dream  ★ Support this podcast ★ On this episode: Isabelle Roughol - Host Megan Kate Nelson - Guest What do you think?Read & comment at broadhistory.comReply on Bluesky Email me: isa@broadhistory.comJump to: (00:00) - Megan Kate Nelson part 2 (updated 29/7) (00:35) - Start of interview (01:03) - Introducing Polly Bemis (02:20) - The majority-Chinese American West (06:11) - Polly Bemis traveled without moving (08:29) - Chinese women were the first targets of US anti-immigrant policy (09:07) - The aggressive anti-Chinese immigration policies of the United States (11:29) - How big government made the West for white men (12:59) - Ella Watson's broken American dream (13:41) - The cattle queens (22:19) - A high tolerance for risk (23:46) - Why correcting the Frontier myth matters today (26:22) - How trad wives utilise the American Frontier (29:38) - What moment in history should we revisit from women's perspective?

  History's super confused ideas about women's sex lives (with Kate Lister) 09.05.2026 49мин

  The ancient Greeks believed a woman's womb wandered through her body and made her ill. Medieval Europeans believed a woman's orgasm was necessary for conception. And the Victorians believed masturbation would drive you to madness. Sex historian Dr. Kate Lister — host of Betwixt the Sheets and author of Flick: A History of Sexual Pleasure — joins me for a tour through the wildly strange, often infuriating history of women's sexuality. For most of that history, women were believed to be the more sex-crazed gender.

  Julia Cooke, author of Starry and Restless, joins me to bring back three women who were household names in their day — Rebecca West, Martha Gellhorn, and Mickey Hahn — pioneering journalists who covered wars, crossed borders, and revolutionised literary nonfiction decades before the men usually credited with inventing it.

  George Sand, the author who outsold Victor Hugo (with Fiona Sampson) 05.03.2026 46мин

  "We raise them like saints, then hand them over like fillies," she said of 19th-century girls. Her best-selling novels were an indictment of arranged marriages and the female condition. At home in France, her contemporaries – Hugo, Flaubert, Balzac – considered her a giant of literature. In England, she outsold Hugo and inspired the Brontë sisters. Today, we don't read her. She's fallen out of the literary canon. If she's known at all, it's for her private life, a scandalous reputation that pop culture has overblown.A new biography of George Sand by British academic and poet Fiona Sampson reveals a thoroughly modern woman, who was centuries ahead in claiming nothing more and nothing less than the freedom to be a complete person. Creators & Guests Isabelle Roughol - Host Fiona Sampson - Guest ★ Support this podcast ★  🇬🇧 Buy the book in the UK: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/9178/9781529924336 🇺🇸 Buy the book in the US: https://bookshop.org/a/79408/9781324074915 (Affiliate bookshop.org links support Broad History and indie bookstores.)Click here to watch a video of this episode.
