TITLE: Chrestomathy for Girls, to be Used in Girls' Schools: Written in Ten Volumes for the Three Tiers of Girls' Education, 1877. DESCRIPTION: Sappho Leontias (1830-1900), was an influential pedagogue, who invested her interest in girls' education in the Orthodox/Greek community of the Ottoman Empire. During the last twenty years of her career, Sappho Leontias concentrated on publishing multi-volume textbooks. She wrote her own textbooks to reduce the dearth of appropriate ones, especially for girls. One example of these textbooks was Chrestomatheia Korasiake [Chrestomathy for Girls]. This document is the first volume of the ten-volume set. The first volume had two editions: the first published in 1873, the second in 1877. Leontias included a long introduction in this volume to present her critique of the existing educational system for girls. She also overviewed the changes she utilized in the schools she organized and described the overall system she proposed for effective girls' education. She developed this educational theory from personal observation as well as extensive study of the Western educational systems and theories. Within the textbook, she included a section for reading practice that contained exclusively women's biographies. This focus on women represented her gendered stance and her belief in the importance of women's history. She criticized existing textbooks, arguing that the total absence of any reference to women prompted girls to form a distorted view of women's place in history and their own place in contemporary society. For Leontias, the woman-first strategy was justified.

La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women's suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France's fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. This first issue of the newspaper opens with an essay by Hubertine Auclert titled, "La Citoyenne," (The Woman Citizen), explaining the publication’s goal of attaining civil and political equality for women and men. Other articles address "Les femmes électeurs," (Women Voters), about women who attempt to vote, despite it being against the law; "Le divorce en Italie," (Divorce in Italy); "Les femmes d’Irlande," (Irish Women), lauding the Women’s Agrarian League’s revolutionary activism against landlords; and "Les femmes au Niger," (Women of Niger), written by the anonymous "A traveler to Niger," which describes how the indigenous women of this French colony travel alone by river, even when nursing a baby.

La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. In this issue, Auclert situates women’s enfranchisement in perspective of “universal suffrage,” a right earned by all French men in 1848. An article on infant health appears on the front page as well, in addition to notice of organizational meetings for the Société le droit des femmes and the Association des dames françaises. Abstract created by Jaime Wadowiec.

La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. In this issue, Auclert argues in a piece called “The Power of the Vote” that with the franchise, women will have a greater say in social matters, like marriage and divorce, which affect their day to day lives. Also appearing in this issue are meeting notes for the Société le droit des femmes, a short piece on abortion, and an article about Algerian vineyards. Abstract created by Jaime Wadowiec.

La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. In this issue, Auclert engages with the argument that, women, because they are mothers and suited for domestic upkeep, should not have the right to vote in the public political world. An article by Anna Maria Mozzoni situates the question of women’s enfranchisement in Italy. Additional pieces discuss working-class women’s right to a livable wage and a snippet called “Women in History” reviews the life of Charlotte Corday, who was executed for the assassination of Jean-Paul Marat during the French Revolution. Abstract created by Jaime Wadowiec.

La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. In this issue, Auclert takes issue with the “hypocrites” who claim that, because women tend toward religion, they should be excluded from the secular republic. Snippet articles address women’s issues in Russia and Senegal (French West Africa), while an article on current political debates addresses legislation which would regulate work hours. The ongoing feature entitled “Women in History” profiles the American abolitionist Harriett Beecher Stowe. Abstract created by Jaime Wadowiec.

La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. In this issue, Auclert continues her focus on religiosity as an argument against women’s enfranchisement. She argues that men who maintain a confessional identity likewise should be excluded from political participation. The weekly segment on political matters pertaining to women focuses on a married woman’s access to household finances, while a piece on the Isle of Man celebrates the political rights granted there to women. A spotlight on “Women in History” focuses on Semiramis, the Assyrian queen who ruled autonomously after the death of her husband. Abstract created by Jaime Wadowiec.
