Product description
The author in this article creates a critical and historical report on female writers so far. She examines the careers of many female authors, including Afra Bahan, Jane Austen, the Brontë sisters, Ann Fenn, Countess Winchelsea, and George Eliot. Additionally, she discussed the works of prominent feminist researcher Jane Ellen Harrison, whom she said is considered an inspiration to her. Harrison was introduced in the article only through her initials separated by long spaces, where the author first presented her by saying "Could she be... the famous researcher herself?". She also discussed the works of Rebecca West, and with a question from Desmond MacCarthy — referred to as "the" — about his opinion, he showed strong rejection of her, considering her to "support feminism in every sense of the word." Among all the men who were attacked because of their opinions about women, E. Smith, Earl of Perkinhead I — also referred to as "Lord Perkinhead" — was mentioned. Although the author does not support his ideas, she said she "would have no problem copying Lord Perkinhead's opinion in women's writings." Perkinhead was one of the opponents of the idea of suffrage.
