Rezensionen
'This is a rich and wide-ranging anthology which explores the continuing debate about the situation of women in Britain after 1800...a significant contribution to our knowledge of the variety and interest of feminist discussion in the period. This collection should go far to inform, stimulate, entertain and prompt further research.' - Dr Jane Rendell, Senior Lecturer in History, University of York
