Excerpt from Nahida Remy's the Jewish Woman
The same spirit of enthusiasm which animated the organizers of the National Council of Jewish Women is manifested in the writings of Nahida Remy. It is a spirit of renaissance which strives to reestablish the lofty, pure, and beautiful ideals of humanity as found in the oldest document of Monotheism - the Mosaic Law.
The scholarly researches, the cogent reasoning, the fervent pleading of the German authoress can not but arouse the attention and awaken a responsive zeal.
In my attempt to bring this work of intrinsic merit before the English reading public I have endeavored to convey the ideas of the writer rather than to give a literal translation.
Some chapters of this work deal largely with the various occupations of women, and there I met with a peculiar difficulty, originating in the fact that in contradistinction from other modern tongues the English language in some cases does not possess, in other cases does not admit the use of, feminine endings in the designation of female practitioners of the different professions.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of Jewish women from antiquity to the modern day. The author juxtaposes the treatment of women from Jewish culture with that of surrounding contemporary civilizations and shows how Jewish women achieved more freedom and social standing than women in many other cultures. This was due in part to the fact that the Bible and Talmud contain rules and statutes that specifically protect women's rights and well-being. The author also discusses the role of Jewish women in society, their contributions to their communities, and the challenges they have faced. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of women's rights, or the history of the Jewish people.
