Abstract

In this essay, it is necessary to understand and comprehend
the ideas that Protestants had about women, the reasons for these ideas, and the space given to women within the missionary project. On the other hand, our interest is in capturing the insights they developed about themselves and the reformations they promoted in society. From an ambivalent position, the Protestantism marked by the religious revivalists meant an opening for women’s participation and recognition. In the context of the Rio de la Plata (Buenos Aires, Rosario, Montevideo), Protestantism initially held a traditional and patriarchal concept of the female roles which was to be challenged by missionary women who came from the United States. They impelled a model for women that sought to make more flexible the patriarchal ideas and favoured modernization of Latin American society through the foundation of institutions –especially educational ones– which favoured the participation of Protestant women in the civil society.
