More about the book

Exploring the active role of women in print culture and public politics, this book uncovers the significant contributions of middle- and lower-class women in shaping political discourse. It challenges the notion that women were mere passive recipients of political ideas, highlighting their diverse socioeconomic backgrounds and religio-political affiliations. By revealing their involvement in the production and dissemination of political thought, the book asserts that women were integral to public life, contradicting contemporary claims of their exclusion.
