Description and Table of Contents
Description
During the 19th century, it was commonly held by people of both sexes that women should not be educated but encouraged to develop only their domestic skills. This new collection of six rare texts from the period reflects the debate that took place on the issue of female education, through the writings of Elizabeth Sandford, John Frederick Denison Maurice, Emily Anne Eliza Shirreff, Elizabeth Sewell and Sarah Stickney Ellis.
