This work explains itself and is given to the world because it is needed. Tired of the obtuseness of Church and State; indignant at the injustice of both towards woman; at the wrongs inflicted upon one-half of humanity by the other half in the name of religion; finding appeal and argument alike met by the assertion that God designed the subjection of woman, and yet that her position had been higher under Christianity than ever before: Continually hearing these statements, and knowing them to be false, I refuted them in a slight resume of the subject at the annual convention of the National…mehr

This work explains itself and is given to the world because it is needed. Tired of the obtuseness of Church and State; indignant at the injustice of both towards woman; at the wrongs inflicted upon one-half of humanity by the other half in the name of religion; finding appeal and argument alike met by the assertion that God designed the subjection of woman, and yet that her position had been higher under Christianity than ever before: Continually hearing these statements, and knowing them to be false, I refuted them in a slight resume of the subject at the annual convention of the National Woman Suffrage Association, Washington, D.C., 1878. A wish to see that speech in print, having been expressed, it was allowed to appear in The National Citizen, a woman suffrage paper I then edited, and shortly afterwards in "The History of Woman Suffrage," of which I was also an editor. The kindly reception given both in the United States and Europe to that meager chapter of forty pages confirmed my purpose of a fuller presentation of the subject in book form, and it now appears, the result of twenty years investigation, in a volume of over five hundred and fifty pages. Read it; examine for yourselves; accept or reject from the proof offered, but do not allow the Church or the State to govern your thought or dictate your judgment.

Autorenporträt
Matilda Joslyn Gage (1826-1898) was a prolific American writer, feminist, and social activist, well-remembered for her unwavering advocacy for women's rights and her critical examination of the role played by religious and social institutions in the oppression of women. Gage was born in Cicero, New York, into an abolitionist family and was heavily influenced by the reformist environment of her household. Her seminal work, 'Woman, Church & State,' published in 1893, embodies her radical ideas as it vehemently criticizes the Church and its entrenched patriarchal norms, offering a historical perspective on the subjugation of women and promoting a vision of gender equality. Gage's work in this text is an exemplification of her skillful intertwining of historical scholarship with fervent activism. Throughout her career, she collaboratively authored 'The History of Woman Suffrage' with other notable suffragists such as Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, further cementing her legacy as a foundational figure in the women's suffrage movement. Her writings, characterized by a piercing and analytical literary style, have inspired generations of feminists and continue to serve as an important reference for studies in women's history and feminist theory.
