Woman in the nineteenth century

'I solicit a sincere and patient attention from those who open the following pages at all. I solicit of women that they will lay it to heart to ascertain what is for them the liberty of law. [...] From men I ask a noble and earnest attention to anything that can be offered on this great and still obscure subject, such as I have met from many with whom I stand in private relations.' Margaret Fuller, "Woman in the Nineteenth Century" (1844).
