This new study explores the role the Unitarians played in female
emancipation. Many leading figures of the late eighteenth and early
nineteenth centuries were Unitarian, or were heavily influenced by
Unitarian ideas, including: Mary Wollstonecraft, Elizabeth Gaskell,
George Eliot, and Florence Nightingale. Ruth Watts examines how far
they were successful in challenging the ideas and social
conventions affecting women. In the process she reveals the complex
relationship between religion, gender, class and education and her
study will be essential reading for those studying the origins of
the feminist movement, nineteenth-century gender history, religious
history or the history of education.
