QR code
"La femme affranchie, vol. 1 of 2" by Madame d'Héricourt is a feminist treatise written in the mid-19th century. This work passionately argues for the legal and social emancipation of women, advocating that women possess the same rights as men. The author, Jenny P. d'Héricourt, aims to challenge contemporary notions about gender roles and inequality while providing guidance for women who share her views. The opening of the text establishes the author's
intent and motivation for writing. D'Héricourt asserts that women are inherently equal to men and deserve emancipation from societal constraints. She critiques prevailing moral standards and legal frameworks that keep women subordinate, citing marriage, education, and work as areas where women are oppressed. The text promises a thorough examination of modern doctrines concerning women's rights, a philosophical grounding for these rights, and practical suggestions for women seeking justice and equality.
