Description
"Woman, Church, and State" is a seminal work written by the 19th-century suffragist and women's rights activist, Matilda Joslyn Gage. The book delves deep into the historical and systemic oppression of women, particularly focusing on the role of the Christian Church in perpetuating this subjugation. Gage presents a comprehensive critique, spanning various epochs of history, to highlight the Church's contribution to women's disenfranchisement in social, political, and familial spheres. Through extensive research and impassioned prose, the book calls for a profound re-evaluation of religious and societal norms, urging for gender equality and justice.
