| Summary | "British Freewomen: Their Historical Privilege" by Charlotte Carmichael Stopes is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the privileges and rights of British women throughout history, aiming to elucidate their roles and statuses in society over time. It appears to tackle significant themes surrounding women's rights, status in law, and historical prominence in governance during different eras. The opening of the work introduces the author’s intent and historical context, discussing early British customs that showcased the equality of genders, particularly focusing on ancient accounts of women like Boadicea and Cartismandua. It references the writing of classical historians like Tacitus and Plutarch, who noted the active roles of British women in political and military affairs. With a timeline spanning from antiquity through the Norman invasion, Stopes points out how historical narratives and changing laws have impacted the rights and social standings of women, laying the groundwork for a detailed exploration of women’s evolving status in British society.
