Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Vocation of Woman
This, however, is not an entirely new condition. Women in the middle ages had more education than men.
With the aims and aspirations of the pioneers of female education no thoughtful woman will find fault. It was to their credit that they realised the quagmire of uselessness into which, under modern conditions, the middle class portion of their sex was beginning to sink. But it is much to be regretted that they adopted the theory of the equality of man and woman as something to be reached only through the closer intellectual approximation of the sexes, instead of by attempt ing to attain a greater perfection of womanhood.
