Autorenporträt
Arabella Kenealy (1864–1930) was an English doctor and writer, known prominently for her views on eugenics and the role of women in society. Trained as a medical practitioner, Kenealy was one of the first female doctors in Britain after obtaining a medical degree at the London School of Medicine for Women. Despite her progressive achievement in medicine, her literary work often reflected anti-feminist themes, a contradiction that has intrigued scholars for decades. In her book 'Feminism and Sex-Extinction' (1920), Kenealy argues that feminist movements pose a threat to human survival by discouraging women from their traditional roles as mothers. Kenealy's controversial views sparked significant debate, aligning her with the eugenic ideologies of her time. While her scientific assertions have since been discredited, her work remains an important reflection of early 20th-century attitudes toward gender and science. Kenealy's biographical study of Lanoe Falconer and her editorial contributions to the Eugenics Review showcase a literary style that is both declarative and contentious, often characterized by her social Darwinist perspective (Jones, 2012). As a woman of letters, Kenealy's publications share a contentious spot in feminist literary history, providing a complex yet critical viewpoint in the panorama of women's literature.
