Englishwoman's Review

The Englishwoman's Review was a feminist periodical published in the United Kingdom between 1866 and 1910.

Until 1869 called in full The Englishwoman's Review: a journal of woman's work, in 1870 (after a break in publication) it was renamed The Englishwoman's Review of Social and Industrial Questions.

One of the first feminist journals, the Englishwoman's Review was a product of the early women's movement. Its first editor was Jessie Boucherett, who saw it as the successor to the English Woman's Journal (1858–1864).

Famous quotes containing the words englishwoman and/or review:

    This Englishwoman is so refined
    She has no bosom and no behind.
    Stevie Smith (1902–1971)

    Americans have internalized the value that mothers of young children should be mothers first and foremost, and not paid workers. The result is that a substantial amount of confusion, ambivalence, guilt, and anxiety is experienced by working mothers. Our cultural expectations of mother and realities of female participation in the labor force are directly contradictory.
