Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Emancipation of English Women NO argument is so common on the lips of the Opponents of Woman Suffrage as that women cannot be emancipated, for they have never been slaves. Those who make this statement can have little knowledge of the facts of history. I shall show in' these pages that, so far from having en joyed freedom, women have for more than two hundred years been struggling against the egoism Of the male sex; that the inferiority which want Of physical strength has imposed Upon them has been aggravated by religion, by law, and by custom; that they have had to contend, always against the indifference, Often against the active prejudice, con tempt, and jealousy of men to Obtain education.

Download or read book The Science of Selection written by James Henry Lovell Eager and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Science of Selection: A Tale of Woman's Emancipation If the science of Selection serves to exemplify the possibility of more happiness in marriage, this work will not have been done in vain. The joining in marriage of intelligent beings, animated by a true and pure love, must undoubtedly bring into the world, under happy conditions, a progeny that combines more of the essential elements of manhood and womanhood than is now born to woman in a hit or miss selection of a mate. The joining in marriage of two persons, both of whom are imbued with the high aspirations of civilization, gives promise of a higher plane of manhood than now obtains. The contented mind of a happy mother goes far to eliminate the possible peevish discontent of a fretful temperament in childhood. A happy, contented mind is a more precious boon to confer on posterity than are riches. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Wollstonecraft and the Beginnings of Female Emancipation in France and England The history of the Emancipation of Women is the long and varied record of their slow and gradual liberation from that utter subjec tion to Man in which various circumstances beyond their control among which the physical superiority of the latter, a form of male supremacy which has seldom been called into question, was probably the most prominent had combined to place them. It relates how in the course of centuries either with the support of a certain portion of the Opposite sex or relying upon their own te sources they strove to cast off the shackles which bound and degraded them, and to acquire that degree of physical, intellectual and moral freedom to which they felt themselves entitled. That the movement towards complete enfranchisement met with a varied reception and was hampered and retarded by men and often by women themselves was due chiefly to the fact that in the question of female possibilities there was much diversity Of Opinions at dif ferent times and among different nations. The worst enemies to evolu tion of this kind were those women who, holding the Empire of Love and Gallantry to be their exclusive domain, in which their sway was not likely to be ever disputed, turned deliberately against those of their own sex who in trying to wrench from the hands of men the sceptre of social power, were willing to forego the privileges of sex. That women were thus divided among themselves from the first, was the natural outcome of those differences in personal attractions and in personal intelligence which have always constituted the great danger of too sweeping conclusions with regard to the inclinations and capabilities of the female sex. Individual members of the same sex may yet be radically different, and he who would prescribe for all will always find himself confronted by the bewildering problem of the disparity of Individuals.

Download or read book Women Race Class written by Angela Y. Davis and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-06-29 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of our most important scholars and civil rights activist icon, a powerful study of the women’s liberation movement and the tangled knot of oppression facing Black women. “Angela Davis is herself a woman of undeniable courage. She should be heard.”—The New York Times Angela Davis provides a powerful history of the social and political influence of whiteness and elitism in feminism, from abolitionist days to the present, and demonstrates how the racist and classist biases of its leaders inevitably hampered any collective ambitions. While Black women were aided by some activists like Sarah and Angelina Grimke and the suffrage cause found unwavering support in Frederick Douglass, many women played on the fears of white supremacists for political gain rather than take an intersectional approach to liberation. Here, Davis not only contextualizes the legacy and pitfalls of civil and women’s rights activists, but also discusses Communist women, the murder of Emmitt Till, and Margaret Sanger’s racism. Davis shows readers how the inequalities between Black and white women influence the contemporary issues of rape, reproductive freedom, housework and child care in this bold and indispensable work.

Download or read book Women Who Fly written by Serinity Young and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the beautiful apsaras of Hindu myth to the swan maidens of European fairy tales, stories of flying women-some carried by wings, others by clouds, rainbows, floating scarves, and flying horses-reveal the perennial fascination with and ambivalence about female power and sexuality. In Women Who Fly, Serinity Young examines the motif of the flying woman as it appears in a wide variety of cultures and historical periods, in legends, myths, rituals, sacred narratives, and artistic productions. She considers supernatural women like the Valkyries of Norse legend, who transport men to immortality; winged deities like the Greek goddesses Iris and Nike; figures of terror like the Furies, witches, and succubi; airborne Christian mystics; and wayward, dangerous women like Lilith and Morgan le Fay. Looking beyond the supernatural, Young examines the modern mythology surrounding twentieth-century female aviators like Amelia Earhart and Hanna Reitsch. Throughout, Young demonstrates that female power has always been inextricably linked with female sexuality and that the desire to control it is a pervasive theme in these stories. This is vividly depicted, for example, in the twelfth-century Niebelungenlied, in which the proud warrior-queen Brünnhilde loses her great physical strength when she is tricked into surrendering her virginity. Even in the twentieth-century the same idea is reflected in the exploits of the comic book and film character Wonder Woman who, Young suggests, retains her physical strength only because her love for fellow aviator Steve Trevor goes unrequited. The first book to systematically chronicle the figure of the flying woman in myth, literature, art, and pop culture, Women Who Fly offers a fresh look at the ways in which women have both influenced and been understood by society and religious traditions throughout the ages and around the world.
