Produktbeschreibung

"An Essay in Defence of the Female Sex" is a feminist text refuting the notion that women are inferior to men. Written in the form of a letter, this work critiques the arguments of various male figures. It argues that they are denied education and intellectual and personal development opportunities. This essay played a crucial role in the history of feminism, as it helped to establish the intellectual and philosophical foundations for the movement's later development.
