| Summary |
The sociologist Clotilde Dissard offers a report and critical review of the 1896 International Feminist Congress, held in Paris. The author places conference discussion into six categories, including feminism, marriage and the family, women's labor, prostitution, women's rights to education, and women's political rights. Writing from the French perspective, the author privileges the voices of French participants and then places their opinions and arguments in context with wider social and political beliefs on women's rights. The author concludes that there were perhaps too many divergent opinions presented on the topic of feminism during the conference, making the conversation contradictory and "ridiculous" at times. A greater emphasis on women's education, according to Dissard, would lead to a better perspective |
