Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Case for Woman Suffrage: A Bibliography This bibliography of books, pamphlets, and magazine articles dealing with woman suffrage has been prepared by a young college woman, Margaret Ladd Franklin, who graduated from Bryn Mawr College in 1908. During her college course she and many of her classmates became deeply interested in the question of woman suffrage. In talking to them and other young college women the President of the National College Equal Suffrage League had occasion to observe that many of the old fashioned arguments most successful in the past seemed to have lost their compelling power, while certain theoretical arguments making a strong intellectual appeal and certain other practical arguments dealing with modem social conditions seemed to carry instant conviction. In the light of such discussions it seemed desirable that so far as possible all the existing arguments for woman suffrage should be carefully reread and classified from the point of view of college women of to-day, and Miss Franklin was accordingly asked to prepare this bibliography for the College Equal Suffrage League. She has spent many weeks in the Congressional Library in Washington and has herself read all the books and pamphlets which she mentions. The stars of praise, the trenchant criticisms, and the illuminating comments are wholly her own. Were it otherwise the bibliography would lose its value and its special appeal to college women. Only in two or three instances when saints of our suffrage calendar had unwisely adventured themselves into the world of literature and had received at her hands too black a mark was it suggested that she should soften a somewhat drastic comment.
