Britain was and is a stratified nation. History sleuths investigate the Georgian Era (1714-1830) of British history to gain an understanding of how the roles women played during this period were influenced by class, race, and religion. Scholars watch a PowerPoint, analyze images, and consider passages from advice literature to gain an understanding of the ideal Georgian woman.
