Known primarily for his work in political philosophy, ethics, and economics, John Stuart Mill is perhaps less well known as an early feminist thinker. Published in 1869, The Subjection of Women was ahead of its time. Motivated by the conviction that the subordination of women was ¿one of the chief obstacles to human improvement,¿ Mill argued not merely for women¿s suffrage, but for ¿a principle of perfect equality¿¿the complete social, political, and legal equality of the sexes. Mill credited his late wife, Harriet Taylor Mill, with many of the important ideas put forth in the book.

Autorenporträt
John Stuart Mill was born at 13 Rodney Street in Pentonville, then on the edge of the capital and now in central London, the eldest son of Harriet Barrow and the Scottish philosopher, historian, and economist James Mill. John Stuart was educated by his father, with the advice and assistance of Jeremy Bentham and Francis Place. He was given an extremely rigorous upbringing, and was deliberately shielded from association with children his own age other than his siblings. His father, a follower of Bentham and an adherent of associationism, had as his explicit aim to create a genius intellect that would carry on the cause of utilitarianism and its implementation after he and Bentham had died.
