520 | |a In this article, I trace widespread popular representations of Quaker women's bonnets from the 1850s through the 1930s in fiction, image, film, and music. Although American Quaker women began to abandon their plain clothing as early as the 1860s, the public remained fascinated with the bonnet for decades after.

Observers saw in the bonnet a host of alluring traits, which muted the potential spiritual and political virtuosity of the Quaker woman beneath it. The bonnet itself became a convenient and erotic shorthand for Quaker women in general, and today provides a helpful lens for understanding the ways in which public memory shapes the religious feminine in American culture. | ||
