Catharine Beecher

Catharine Beecher was, in the mid-19th century, the most influential American proponent of what, more recently, has been called difference feminism, the belief that the capacities of women, while not inferior, are fundamentally different from those of men. In this regard, she played an important role in justifying a great expansion in the employment of women as teachers in common (elementary) schools.
