Amalia Holst: On the Vocation of Woman to Higher Intellectual Education

Herausgeber: Cooper, Andrew

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The first English translation of Amalia Holst's daring manifesto for women's education, originally published in 1802. It centres on a basic provocation: as far as the mind is concerned, women are equal partakers in the project of Enlightenment, and should thus have unfettered access to the sciences in general and to philosophy in particular.
