Περιγραφή για The Ascent Of Woman: A History of the Suffragette Movement Melanie Phillips Abacus 1220

The story of the fight to gain the vote for women is about much more than a peripheral if picturesque skirmish around the introduction of universal suffrage. It is an explosive story of social and sexual revolutionary upheaval, and one which has not yet ended. The movement for women\'s suffrage in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries prefigured to a startling extent the controversies which rage today around the role of women. Far from the stereotype of a uniform body of women chaining themselves to railings, the early feminist movement was riven by virulent arguments over women\'s role in society, the balance to be struck between self-fulfilment and their duties to family and children, and their relationship with men.Melanie Phillips\' brilliant book tells the story of the fight for women\'s suffrage in a way which sets the high drama of those events in the context of the moral and intellectual ferment that characterised it.
