''Notes on Men, Women and Books'' is a collection of essays by Lady Jane Francesca Wilde, mother of the famous writer Oscar Wilde. The book is a fascinating exploration of the social and cultural norms of the Victorian era, particularly as they relate to gender roles and relationships. Lady Wilde covers a wide range of topics, including the education of women, the treatment of women in literature, and the differences between men and women in terms of their emotional and intellectual capacities. She also provides insightful commentary on the works of some of the most prominent writers of the day, including Shakespeare, Goethe, and George Eliot. Throughout the book, Lady Wilde’s writing is characterized by her sharp wit, her keen intelligence, and her deep compassion for the human condition. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of feminism, gender studies, or Victorian literature and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
