商品簡介
The anthology's title is from Frances Power Cobbes' 1868 essay, in which she describes English women's lack of legal rights. Hamilton (English, U. of Alberta) provides an informative introduction to essays from eight Victorian-era feminists and anti- feminists with diverse views on the "Woman Question" in Victorian England. Following each essay from mainstream rather than feminist periodicals is a biographical note, and primary and secondary sources. This update of the 1995 edition adds an essay by Cobbe on education for women and a chronology. Not indexed. Annotation c2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
