Download or read book Woman in Modern Society written by Earl Barnes and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-07 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a new edition of "Woman in Modern Society," originally published in 1913 by B.W. Huebsch, of New York. Part of the project Immortal Literature Series of classic literature, this is a new edition of the classic work published in 1913-not a facsimile reprint. Obvious typographical errors have been carefully corrected and the entire text has been reset and redesigned by Pen House Editions to enhance readability, while respecting the original edition. "Woman in Modern Society" is a book which says a good many things which need to be said and which succeeds in rubbing off some of the artificial glamour with which many are wont to glorify women's present achievements and position. The author subscribes to the belief that the equality of men and women is one of supplementary activities alone; only by recognition of this principle of mutual dependence can the work of either of the sexes be made complete. It is an invigorating book opening to our minds the existing condition of women. Not radical in its purport, it offers a sane presentation of woman with her accumulative powers and a means whereby this power may be increased. "What it Means to be a Woman" is the title of the first chapter. Therein is discussed a fundamental question as to the origin of female life from the protoplasmic germ. Following the formation of sexes, structural and functional differences give rise to distinguishing characteristics. Life in a woman is found to be more constructive, anabolic than in the man. Both physiologically and intellectually, women's conservatism presents a contrast with the spasmodic, destructive, tendencies of man. Bearing in mind these elemental characteristics, the woman race possesses as a heritage complemental sex qualities which properly governed establish a perfect balance in the individual life and that of society. (From Journal of Political Economy, University of Chicago Press, 1922; Book News Monthly, Vol. 31, 1912.) About the Author: Earl Barnes was born in Martville, New York, on July 15, 1861. He received an A.B. from Indiana University in 1889 and an M.S. from Cornell University in 1891. He was Professor of History at Indiana University and later Professor of Education at Stanford University, where he (and his first wife and former teacher, Mary Downing Sheldon Barnes-herself a historian and a writer) taught until 1897, when the couple decided to move to Europe. Barnes was later appointed staff lecturer for the London Society for Extension of University Teaching, with which he worked from 1900 to 1901, when he then became a full-time writer. He died in New Hartford, Connecticut, on May 29, 1935. Earl Barnes is mostly known for his publications, "Studies in Education, volumes I and II" (1897); "Where Knowledge Fails" (1907); "Women in Modern Society" (1912); and "Psychology of Childhood and Youth" (1914).

The woman who finds her work will find her love - and 'i do not doubt will cherish it bravely.

This is to be the Woman's Century. In it she is to awake from her long sleep and come into her kingdom; but when I look about me I find myself surrounded by the most terribly contradictory facts. We' know there is to be a revaluation of all values - we know that old rubbish is to be burnt up, that the social world is to be melted down and re moulded nearer to the heart's desire but at the same time we have to recognize that in spite of the enthusiasm of the alchemists and the transmuters of base metal into gold, the main body of society is as yet hardly aware of the fire that is to burn it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Women Workers and Society HE labor of women outside Of the home constitutes one of the most vital problems in American life. The reason for this is two fold: first, the fact that, to an unprecedented degree, women are engaging in gainful occupa tions; and second, the effect of their labor upon marriage and upon the home. Thus it is apparent that the labor of women evokes an interest quite apart from its physical aecom plishment. It is the social effect of such labor that awakens thought, and ultimately resolves itself into action. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woman and Her Era, Vol. 1 Women from the legal and social disabilities under which the sex has labored from the beginning. If the wife of the dissolute husband can hold in her own right, the means of saving her children from starvation and ignorance; if the ranks of self-supporting Women find new and more remu nerative fields Open to them; if the Wronged Woman breathes a more human atmosphere of compassion, tender ness, and respect - healers, all, of the hurt she has suffered; if the Society of our day realizes, in its high need, the more fluent power of Woman to purify, inspire, and uplift it to higher motives and better regulated action; if the diviner tenderness of the feminine life is taking more distinct forms of potentiality over the selfishness and ferocity of former ages, we have to thank, more than any other party or organization, the brave Women of our generation who have persistently striven for these objects, bearing, mean while, the inevitable reproach and contumely of such a Reform, but never abandoning it. And if the views herein contained, are to receive a more liberal hearing now than they could have at the period of their advent into my own mind, that favorable circumstance, according to my judgment, is due mainly to these efforts. And I am grateful for them - not so much because they have prepared an audience for my word, as for any Truth of Woman, from any source.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Woman Life The external arguments on both sides the modern woman question have been pretty thoroughly presented and well argued. It seems needless to repeat or recombine them; but in one relation they have scarcely been handled with any direct purpose. Justice and expediency have been the points insisted on or contested; these have not gone back far enough; they have not touched the central fact, to set it forth in its force and finality. The fact is original and inherent, behind and at the root of the entire matter, with all its complication and circumstance. We have to ask a question to which it is the answer, and whose answer is that of the whole doubt and dispute. What is the law of woman-life? What was she made woman for, and not man? Shall we look back to that old third chapter of Genesis? When mankind had taken the knowledge and power of good and evil into their own hands through the mere earthly wisdom of the serpent; when the woman had had her hasty outside way and lead, according to the story, and woe had come of it, - what was the sentence? And was it a penance, or a setting right, or a promise, or all three? The serpent was first dealt with. The narrow policy, the keen cunning, the little, immediate outlook, the expedient motive; all that was impersonated of temporary shift and outward prudence in mortal affairs, regardless of, or blind to, the everlasting issues; all, in short, that represented material and temporal interest as a rule and order, - and is not man's external administration upon the earth largely forced to be a legislation upon these principles and economies? - was disposed of with the few words, "I will put enmity between thee and the woman." Was this punishment, - as reflected upon the woman, - or the power of a grand retrieval for her? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Women at the World's Crossroads There is a choice before us as people who live in a great world, so knit together that even America cannot stand quite outside it, or act as though it were situated somewhere in the moon! That choice is a choice - let me put it quite brutally between heaven and hell. Sometimes when people go to preach what is called a mission, they lay before their hearers a choice between a future in heaven or in hell. In a sense, that is the choice the world has to make to-day. But it is not a choice between a heaven or a hell beyond the grave; it is a choice between making heaven or making hell on this side of the grave, and in this world, here and now.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ways of Woman The little essays gathered in this volume are an attempt to interpret informally certain activities and responsibilities of the average normal woman. It is not surprising that in an age intoxicated as ours is by changes in its outward habits and conduct, there should come a certain contempt for the great slow currents with which mankind has moved since the world began. The old currents are lost we say in electrified, self-directing eddies, pools, streams. We have a new world of machines and systems - the world of Kultur. But this is to study only the surface.
