Women's Economic Thought in the Eighteenth Century (Hardcover, New)

In the history of economics, women writers were all but invisible
until a few decades ago. Although much work has now been
recuperated, the writings on economics of eighteenth-century women
authors have yet to be brought fully to light. This new
three-volume collection from Routledge remedies that omission and
makes key archival source material readily available to scholars,
researchers, and students. This comprehensive compilation of
eighteenth-century works by women writers includes several texts
translated into English for the first time, such as an important
critique on Adam Smith's Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) by
Sophie de Grouchy Condorcet. The collection is divided into three
volumes. Volume I ('The Economy of the Household') addresses the
following topics: moral and economic conduct; women's position in
marriage; gender equality; and household production. The second
volume ('The Economy of the Market'), meanwhile, brings together
texts that address education, work, wages, access to the
professions, and issues of wealth and poverty more generally.
Volume III assembles materials under the title 'Women's Views on
Institutions and Change'. Women's Economic Thought in the
Eighteenth Century is a treasure-trove for all serious scholars and
students of economic history. The gathered works are reproduced in
facsimile, giving users a strong sense of immediacy to the texts
and permitting citation to the original pagination. And with a
detailed and comprehensive introduction placing the materials fully
in context, the collection is destined to be welcomed as a vital
reference and research resource.
