Publisher's Synopsis

The Woman's World is a collection of essays written by the renowned Irish author, Oscar Wilde, and published in 1889. The essays in the book focus on various aspects of women's lives and their role in society. Wilde examines topics such as women's education, the suffrage movement, marriage, and fashion. He also offers his opinions on famous women of his time, such as Queen Victoria and Sarah Bernhardt.Throughout the book, Wilde advocates for women's rights and equality, arguing that women should have the same opportunities as men. He critiques the traditional gender roles of his era, arguing that they limit women's potential and stifle their creativity. Wilde's prose is witty, insightful, and at times provocative, making The Woman's World a fascinating read for anyone interested in women's history, feminism, or literary criticism. Overall, The Woman's World is a seminal work in the feminist movement and a testament to Wilde's enduring legacy as a writer and social critic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
