Product Description
by Mary Taylor (Author)
The First Duty of Women is a collection of articles originally published in the Victoria Magazine between 1865 and 1870, written by Mary Taylor. The book explores the role of women in society during the Victorian era and argues that their first duty is to themselves, rather than to their husbands or families. Taylor challenges the traditional view of women as subservient and passive, advocating for their education and independence. She also addresses issues such as women's employment, marriage, and motherhood, providing a thought-provoking analysis of the challenges facing women in the 19th century. The book is a valuable historical document, shedding light on the early feminist movement and the struggles for women's rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
