A Survey Of The Woman Problem (1913)

By Rosa Obermayer Mayreder

Book Overview

A Survey of the Woman Problem is a book written by Rosa Obermayer Mayreder and published in 1913. The book explores the various issues faced by women in society during the early 20th century, including education, employment, marriage, and motherhood. Mayreder provides a comprehensive analysis of the social, economic, and political factors that contribute to the oppression of women, and offers suggestions for how these issues can be addressed.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the ""woman problem."" Mayreder begins by discussing the historical and cultural roots of gender inequality, and goes on to examine the ways in which women are excluded from various spheres of public life. She argues that women's lack of access to education and employment opportunities is a major factor contributing to their subordination, and suggests that women must be given equal access to these resources in order to achieve true equality.Mayreder also explores the role of marriage and motherhood in women's lives, and critiques the traditional gender roles that have been imposed on women throughout history. She argues that women should have the right to choose whether or not to marry and have children, and that society should support those who make non-traditional choices.Throughout the book, Mayreder draws on examples from her own life and from the lives of other women she has known, to illustrate the various challenges faced by women in society. She also provides historical and statistical data to support her arguments, and offers a vision for a more just and equitable society in which women are able to fully participate and thrive.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
