Excerpt from Woman as She Should Be
The three first chapters of this volume were ori ginally prepared and preached by the author to his people, in a course of evening lectures, without any expectation of publishing them. The circumstances of the times led to the publication of the first one, in the Religious Magazine and separately. It has been some time out of print, and several individuals have signified a request that the other two might be pub lished in connection with another edition of it. They have been accordingly submitted to the publishers, to be issued in the present form and connection. The first chapter is designed to indicate the sphere in which Christianity instructs woman to move and act; the second, to show what Christianity has done for her, and to exhibit the reasons why more women than men become pious; the third, to illus trate what is implied in the true Christian education of woman. I have employed the Saxon term, wo man, considering it to be in truer taste, though less in use, than the somewhat vulgarized term lady.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in the 19th century, explores the biblical foundations of women's roles in both domesticity and society. By examining critical passages as well as early Christian history, the author examines both the Christian ideal and how that ideal has been corrupted over time, particularly in Western society. Arguing against the idea that female assertiveness is somehow unnatural, the author sets out to defend the idea that women have both a right and a responsibility to fully participate in their own spiritual and intellectual development as those of the male sex. This is shown through examination of the lives of prominent women in the early Christian church. In arguing for female participation, the author makes a strong case for recognizing women's influence and thus the importance of female virtue for society, showing how female piety can affect the world.
