| − | + | Pierre de Charlevoix's "Iroquois Women in Government" seemed on the surface to glorify the hierarchy which help women at the top but unraveled into an explanation of how Iroquois men only allowed the women to seem powerful. I wonder how much of Charlevoix's account was true and how much was a biased opinion based in Western ideals of the Patriarch Royalty. This piece prompts me to wonder if Charlevoix felt challenged by the reversal of gender empowerment and the implication and influence that could have on western women. - Caryn Levine | |
