This six-volume collection brings together key documents on womens suffrage from Britain and the Empire in the century between 1767 and 1867. With a particular focus on voting rights and political representation, the collection includes excerpts of works from renowned writers such as Edmund Burke and John Stuart Mill, as well as rare and insightful texts from less prominent authors. This collection provides a valuable reference to students of various disciplines, including British and imperial history, gender studies, literature, politics, and the history of feminism.
Recenzijas
'the facsimile reproductions are of the highest quality and Pickering & Chatto have demonstrated once again why they are a leading publisher of primary source materials.' Australian Journal of Politics and History 'a most valuable collection of primary sources. Many of the texts included deserve much closer textual attention for the vitality and liveliness of the writing. The anthology can be strongly recommended for library purchase.' Democratization
