Introducing Feminism Jenainati Cathia
The term feminism came into English usage around the 1890s, but women's conscious struggle to resist discrimination and sexist oppression goes back much further. Although far from an academic study, the cartoon-drawing format and merry black-and-white illustrations will render the book popular among younger groups in need of a rapid overview of the movement. Introducing Feminism surveys the major developments that have affected women's lives from the seventeenth century to the present day.Readers who have forgotten the struggles of women who came generations--and centuries--before will appreciate this handsome little guide introducing the basics of feminist theory.
From Mary Wollstonecraft to Betty Friedan, the diminutive volume offers a chronological history of feminism in its nascent roots in colonial times, to the 1960s Women's Movement and its modern form today.
