The Woman's Bible

Meer over het boek

A prominent figure in the 19th-century women's movement, Elizabeth Cady Stanton advocated for a wide range of women's rights, including suffrage, parental rights, and property rights. Her work, the Woman's Bible, aimed to revise biblical texts that pertain to women, challenging the patriarchal interpretations that have historically marginalized them. Through her commentary, she critiques societal norms that view women as inferior and proposes a reinterpretation of scripture to include a more equitable perspective on gender.
