| Publisher Description: The Home: Its Work and Influence is the 1903 book by feminist Charlotte Perkins Gilman that attacks the domestic life of the early twentieth century. "the economic independence and specialization of women is essential to the improvement of marriage, motherhood, domestic industry, and racial improvement," which is her central theme, and echoes most loudly in this book, the antithesis of her work. Charlotte Perkins Gilman was a notable American feminist. While she was most famous for her writings, both fiction and non-fiction, on feminism and social reform, she was also a poet, artist, magazine editor, lecturer, and social reformer. She was a great influence on modern feminism because of her view on utopian feminism and unorthodox lifestyle views. Library Classics is dedicated to bringing the world the best of humankind's literature from throughout the ages. Carefully selected, each work is unabridged from classic works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, or drama. |
