Пра гэту электронную кнігу

Charlotte Perkins Gilman's 'The Man-Made World; Or, Our Androcentric Culture' is a groundbreaking feminist work that critiques the patriarchal structure of society in the late 19th century. Using a combination of personal anecdotes, sociological analysis, and historical research, Gilman explores the ways in which men have dominated and shaped culture to benefit themselves, often at the expense of women. Her writing style is clear and direct, making complex feminist theories accessible to a wider audience. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in early feminist literature and the history of gender equality movements. Gilman's critique of androcentrism remains relevant today, shedding light on the ongoing struggle for gender equality and the need for a more inclusive and equitable society.

Звесткі пра аўтара

Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935) was a pioneering American feminist, sociologist, and writer, whose works questioned the traditional roles of women in society and advocated for their economic independence and social reform. Her seminal book, 'The Man-Made World; Or, Our Androcentric Culture' (1911), critiques the patriarchal structures of power and the androcentric worldview that marginalizes women's contributions to society. Gilman's literary style often featured a didactic approach, combining narrative and social critique to challenge readers' presuppositions. In addition to her sociological analyses, Gilman is widely known for her short story 'The Yellow Wallpaper' (1892), a semi-autobiographical tale that examines the damaging effects of the 'rest cure' on women's mental health. Her other important works include 'Women and Economics' (1898), which argues that women's economic dependency on men restricts their potential in society, and 'Herland' (1915), a utopian novel envisioning a society composed entirely of women. Gilman's writing was instrumental in shaping early feminist thought and continues to be a vital part of gender studies curricula. Her work not only reflects the struggles women faced during her life but also offers a prescient analysis of gender dynamics that resonates in contemporary discussions of feminism.
