Synopsis

The Shelf2Life Women

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The unusually large amount of literature printed on the subject of women in all its various phases made it difficult for me to select such articles of importance that could be issued within the limited number of pages in one volume permitted by the plan of the Modern Library. The essays that are used will be found, I hope, to be in each case a definite and intelligent contribution to the subject. The names of a number of important writers on the position of woman, past and present, will not be found in the following pages. In certain cases the reason for this omission was that I was unable to obtain the permission necessary to include the particular article required to maintain the unity of the idea. In regard to the others omitted, such as a selection from Weininger s Sex and Character and Schopenhauer soverworked and sophomoric Essay on Woman, I have considered that they could only be included in the sense of being curiosities rather than intelligent contributions to the book. In the case of Mary Wollstonecraft, I have thought it to better purpose to use Mrs. Fawcett sable introduction to the last edition of AV indication of the Rights of Woman in place of any one chapter from the book itself. This introduction is almost a commentary on the historical place of the work, which was originally published in England in 1792. It was also my intention to include an essay on the position of women in The Great War, but, unfortunately, I could find none of sufficient value to justify including it in this collection. The important presentation of this idea remains to be written.
