Produktbeschreibung

In Alice Duer Miller's groundbreaking book 'Women are people!', the author explores the societal norms and expectations that have historically limited women's rights and agency. Written in a straightforward and compelling style, Miller challenges the traditional views on women's roles and highlights the importance of recognizing women as fully-fledged individuals. Set within the context of the early 20th century, Miller's work provides valuable insights into the struggles faced by women in a male-dominated society. Through poignant anecdotes and compelling arguments, 'Women are people!' serves as a testament to the enduring fight for gender equality. Alice Duer Miller, a renowned women's rights advocate and poet, draws from her own experiences and observations to deliver a powerful message of empowerment and liberation. Her passion for social justice and equality shines through in every page, making 'Women are people!' both a captivating read and a call to action for all readers. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in feminist literature and the ongoing quest for gender equality.

Autorenporträt

Alice Duer Miller (1874-1942) was an American novelist, poet, screenwriter, and women's rights activist. Born into wealth in New York City, she was raised in a family of politicians, businessmen, and academics. At Barnard College, she studied Astronomy and Mathematics while writing novels, essays, and poems. She married Henry Wise Miller in 1899, moving with him in their young son to Costa Rica where they struggled and failed to open a rubber plantation. Back in New York, Miller earned a reputation as a gifted poet whose satirical poems advocating for women's suffrage were collected in Are Women People? (1915). Over the next two decades, Miller published several collections of stories and poems, some of which would serve as source material for motion picture adaptations. The White Cliffs (1940), her final published work, is a verse novel that uses the story of a young women widowed during the Great War to pose important questions about the morality of conflict and patriotism in the leadup to the United States' entrance into World War II.
