This anti-suffrage pamphlet by Marie Corelli is a fascinating read for any modern feminist or social historian and all those who are interested in the history of suffragism. Corelli accepted gender roles as natural and immutable, which inevitably influenced her view on female suffrage. She claimed that nature insists on contrasts, and therefore the suffragette betrayed feminine culture and showed herself in allegiance with men rather than as committed to her own sex. This book contains classic material dating back to the 1900s and before. The content has been carefully selected for its interest and relevance to a modern audience.
