Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Stuart Mill's 1869 essay The Subjection of Women argues for equality between the sexes, putting forward ideas that were an affront to many at the time. His wife, Harriet Taylor Mill, is credited with co-authoring the essay. The Subjection of Women puts forward a detailed and passionate opposition to the social and legal inequalities imposed on women by society. Mill saw that he was going against the grain of the time, but argued that such inequality was a past relic from a time when might equaled right and that it had no place in the modern world. Inequality between the sexes limited human development as it made half of humanity unable to contribute to society outside of their own homes.

At the time of its publication, the essay's argument for equality between the sexes was an affront to European conventional norms regarding the status of men and women. John Stuart Mill credited his wife, Harriet Taylor Mill, with co-writing the essay. While some scholars agreed by 2009 that John Stuart Mill was the sole author, it is also noted that some of the arguments are similar to Harriet Taylor Mill's essay The Enfranchisement of Women which was published in 1851. Harriet Taylor Mill's daughter, Helen Taylor, is believed by some to have contributed to the essay as well. Mill was convinced that the moral and intellectual advancement of humankind would result in greater happiness for everybody. He asserted that the higher pleasures of the intellect yielded far greater happiness than the lower pleasure of the senses. He conceived of human beings as morally and intellectually capable of being educated and civilised. Mill believed everyone should have the right to vote, with the only exceptions being barbarians and uneducated people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Subjection of Women is a profound and progressive work that argues for the equality of women in all aspects of society. Written in 1861 and published in 1869, Mill's essay challenges the legal and social inequalities faced by women, advocating for their complete emancipation. The work is structured as a logical argument against the societal norms and legal structures that subjugated women. Mill begins by addressing the natural differences argument, which claimed that women were naturally inferior to men. He refutes this by asserting that such beliefs are the result of social conditioning rather than inherent nature. Mill argues that women's abilities are stifled by lack of opportunity and education, and that given equal chances, they would demonstrate capabilities equal to men's. He further argues that the subordination of women is a hindrance to human progress and that society would benefit greatly from the contributions of women if they were allowed to participate equally. Mill supports his arguments with examples from history and contemporary society, demonstrating how the liberation of women leads to overall societal advancement.
Download or read book On Liberty and the Subjection of Women written by John Stuart Mill and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-08-31 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prodigiously brilliant thinker who sharply challenged the beliefs of his age, the political and social radical John Stuart Mill was the most influential English-speaking philosopher of the nineteenth century. Regarded as one of the sacred texts of liberalism, his great work On Liberty argues lucidly that any democracy risks becoming a 'tyranny of opinion' in which minority views are suppressed if they do not conform with those of the majority. Written in the same period as On Liberty, shortly after the death of Mill's beloved wife and fellow-thinker Harriet, The Subjection of Women stresses the importance of equality for the sexes. Together, the works provide a fascinating testimony to the hopes and anxieties of mid-Victorian England, and offer a compelling consideration of what it truly means to be free.
