| Summary | "Gloriana; or, the Revolution of 1900" by Lady Florence Dixie is a feminist novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative addresses the social injustices faced by women and champions their rights, centering on the protagonists Gloria and Speranza de Lara, mother and daughter. Through their lives and struggles, the text navigates themes of empowerment, equality, and the pursuit of justice, reflecting the author's progressive views that challenge the norms of society during that era. The opening of the novel introduces us to Maremna, a young girl wrapped in a dream-like vision where she contemplates the wrongs suffered by women, symbolizing the overarching themes of the story. We are then introduced to the dialogue between Gloria and her mother, Speranza, who discuss Gloria's aspirations to right societal wrongs and her determination to lead a movement for women's equality. The two characters are depicted with depth and passion, highlighting their shared commitment to change and the obstacles they face. Gloria’s audacious vow to undertake this cause, regardless of the risks, sets the stage for an exploration of the revolutionary ideals that will unfold throughout the rest of the book.
