Women make up half of society, and yet few pages have been written about women's history, their lives, and contributions. It is time to redress this imbalance and recognize the significant involvement and impact women have had throughout history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnter the Georgian period, hailed as the Age of Enlightenment. Amidst a backdrop of cultural blossoming, intellectual fervour, and the whirlwind of the Industrial Revolution, society underwent seismic shifts politically, socially, and technologically. However, for women, the landscape remained largely unchanged; the expectations of domesticity, marriage, and motherhood persisted as steadfast norms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmbarking on a journey through diverse backgrounds, from aristocracy to enslavement, this book introduces ten remarkable women who defied societal norms during the Georgian period. Among them are political activists, social reformers, a literary luminary, a pioneer in palaeontology, and a mathematical prodigy. These trailblazers dared to pursue careers, passions, and lifestyles deemed scandalous by societal standards, challenging the status quo and carving out paths of empowerment in a world reluctant to grant them their due recognition. Each embodies the spirit of feminism, resisting the grip of patriarchy and leaving an indelible mark on history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rebecca Sophia Katherine Wilson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 139906925X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399069250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pen and Sword History\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/28\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Rebecca Sophia Katherine Wilson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46431565185279,"sku":"9781399069250","price":42.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_23a43a41-878d-4025-9824-bd801a18888b.jpg?v=1735141717","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/georgian-feminists-rebecca-sophia-katherine-wilson-9781399069250","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
