Settled in the nineteenth century, a period of national liberation,
this book presents facts about the contribution of women to Serbian
culture. The story is, however, of an equal contemporary as well as
of historical relevance: work of these authors remained hidden as
they were neither adequately evaluated in school curriculums and
textbooks, nor recognized by the general public. Does the absence
from textbooks and literary histories imply their literature is not
worth reading? Or, that the histories of literature are simply
biased and inadequate? The answers to these questions are
elaborated in this book. The author carefully investigates the
strategies of historians and official politics of remembrance,
arguing that the link between women's education and emancipation of
the society has yet to be properly explained. The reader, whether a
student, researcher, social scientist, or an intellectual
interested in the history, social development, literature, or
politics of Serbia, or the Balkan in general, will benefit from the
numerous original sources consulted. This book is a reminder that
understanding society means uncovering the hidden and giving voice
to the ignored, providing evidence that contradicts dominant
theories, rather than simply repeating what we are told.
