Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the lives, relationships, and identities of the women of the middle class in the 19th century. The leading intellectuals, literary figures, and artists of the time were men, and English society largely accepted that women were inferior to men and should be restricted to the roles of wife and mother. However, women who aspired for fuller lives, worked collectively to create a new identity for themselves, founded schools and other institutions to advance their education and welfare, and campaigned for social change, including the right to vote. The author draws on a wide range of sources to offer a multifaceted study of the complex and contradictory aspects of 19th-century middle-class women's lives. This book is a powerful testament to these women's intelligence, imagination, ambition, and courage, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of feminism.
