While the perspectives examined in this article are not exhaustive,
and not necessarily representative, they do suggest some general
contours of Mormon women’s internal worlds during the seismic shift
of Mormonism’s transition into modern America. Early twentiethcentury
Church leaders’ emphasis on an unboundedly optimistic
and progressive Christian restorationism seemed to soften early Mormonism’s
sacrificial reality with a greater expectation of a ram in the
thicket, but the experience of late nineteenth-century Mormonism
was too fresh in the minds and lives of these women to be forgotten. -
