Opis

This is a collection of writings by, on or about, women who were connected with 19th-century radicalism. It focuses on writings with plebeian and working-class rather than middle and upper-class origins, and also concentrates on the first rather than the second half of the 19th century. It features the writings of women who made important yet relatively unknown contributions to Radicalism, Owenism, Chartism and Feminism, most notably Susannah Wright, Eliza Sharples, Frances Wright, Helen Macfarlane, Anna Wheeler, Frances Morrison and Eliza Macauley. The collection is organized around the following key themes: the question of women's political, social and economic rights; the use of the figure of woman within the radical and working-class movements; the role of women within the radical, trade union, Owenite, Chartist and other social movements; and the discussion of gender roles, family structures, personal relationships and sexuality.
