Book excerpt: This book tells the story of the women's suffrage movement in Britain beginning with John Stuart Mill's proposal of a women's suffrage amendment to a reform bill.

An illustrated timeline, map, and treasure trove of historical photos enrich the learning experience.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1870 edition. Excerpt: ... a whole, take no trouble to acquire it. Is is taking for granted by them that this, like everything else, ought to be provided for them; or that, at least, the acquisition should be made as easy to them as possible, instead of the labour and difficulty being left for themselves to conquer. This curious effect of everlasting receiving should at least make them cautious how they remain in the position of constant recipients--a position that teaches people to feel themselves wronged if there is any L good thing that might have been given to them which they have not got. Instead of complaining of those who teach them because they have neglected to teach them what was essential, or because they habitually put limits to feminine acquirements, their best way would be to learn for themselves. These limits, this neglect, are far more common among women than among men. If it be pleaded that women know no better, let the same plea serve for those who have given them so much. And they will find that, though custom deprives them of education, though the opinion of men, much more loudly echoed by women, puts serious impediments in the way of getting it, it is yet true that if the good-will of men only were required they might safely calculate upon it. Though every man puts a limit to what his womankind may learn, his limit is, generally, beyond theirs. Except, possibly, a few very degraded ones, men earnestly wish for women to be wise, instructed, and happy. If a vote or deed of theirs would make them so, most certainly it would be done; done even by those who would find no companionship among such women when they got them. But it needs more than the will, ay, and more than the wisdom if they had it--it needs the power. A man's ability is rarely...

The new entries include women who have hit the headlines in the past five years - from Cory Aquino to Madonna - but the historical coverage has also been broadened in response to new research and a special new feature is the extended treatment of women from Third World countries.

Download or read book The Women s Suffrage Movement in Britain and Ireland written by Elizabeth Crawford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comprehensive study, Elizabeth Crawford provides the first survey of women’s suffrage campaigns across the British Isles and Ireland, focusing on local campaigns and activists. Divided into thirteen sections covering the regions of England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland, this book gives a unique geographical dimension to debates on the suffrage campaign of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries Through a study of the grass-roots activists involved in the movement, Crawford provides a counter to studies that have focused on the politics and personalities that dominated at a national level, and reveals that, far from providing merely passive backing to the cause, women in the regions were engaged in the movement as active participants Including a thorough inventory of archival sources and extensive bibliographical and biographical references for each region, including the addresses of campaigners, this guide is essential for researchers, scholars, local historians and students alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asking what Indian readers chose to read and why, In Another Country shows how readers of the English novel transformed the literary and cultural influences of empire. She further demonstrates how Indian novelists writing in English, from Krupa Satthianadhan to Salman Rushdie, took an alien form in an alien language and used it to address local needs. Taken together in this manner, reading and writing reveal the complex ways in which culture is continually translated and transformed in a colonial and postcolonial context.

Download or read book Suffrage Reader written by Claire Eustance and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2000-02-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reader contains a mixture of new narratives on suffrage, together with reinterpretations of some long-established "truths" about the campaign by British women for the vote. Some chapters shift the focus from "the great and the good" based in London, and explore the issues which motivated supporters in other parts of Britain. Other chapters illuminate the lengths some men were prepared to go to see women become voters - and the lengths others were prepared to go to stop them. A variety of topics is covered by the contributors, who include both established scholars and writers relatively new to the field. "A Suffrage Reader" provides an opportunity to push back the boundaries of suffrage history, enabling us to think again about the diverse and sometimes contraditory motives for, and outcomes of, involvement in the long campaign by women for the vote in Britain. The book also makes it possible to pause and reflect upon recent developments in writing on suffrage history, and the extent to which this has been bound up with developing attitudes towards politics in the latter decades of the 20th century.
