Startling in its observations and radical in its conclusions, this
classic of women's rights literature, this work-by pioneering
American feminist CHARLOTTE PERKINS GILMAN (1860-1935)-was a
phenomenon when it was first published in 1898, and was eventually
translated into in seven languages and reprinted around the world.
From her characterization of women as virtual economic, social, and
sexual slaves, dependent on men for everything from food to
friendship to protection, to her call for women to free themselves
from these shackles, Women and Economics electrified Victorian
readers. It remains a foundational work of feminist theory,
essential reading for anyone wishing to understand women's struggle
for full and self-determined personhood.
