Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Women in English Life, Vol. 2 of 2: From Mediævsl to Modern Times Meaning of the word politics - Position and influence of the Saxon queens - The three Norman queens - The Plantagenet queens - The rule of the Hanoverians - Politicians of the last century - Interest in politics confined to the upper classes - The Duchess of Marlborough - Her opinion of women - Influence of Dissenters in politics - The Countess of Suffolk - Lady Hervey - The Countess of Huntingdon storms the House of Lords - The Westminster election - The Duchess of Devonshire. In sketching the part women have played in politics, it must be premised that the word politics is used with a wider signification than is attached to it in modern times. The original meaning of the word - public as opposed to private, the life of the State as distinct from the life of the individual - covers a large field of activity.
