A Serious Proposal to the Ladies reviews from people you don't follow
This was a very interesting read. It is a compilation of, primarily, two essays directed at the women of the Restoration and Revolution period in London, England. While it mainly speaks to women to be more free in their religions, it also talks about women's political freedoms. This seems to be an early feminist essay which calls to give women more power over their lives.
I did enjoy the first essay more than I did the second because the second got a lot more religious and quite repetitive. But it was still interesting.
If you are interested in early feminist lit or in religious literature, check this book out. I think you would thoroughly enjoy it.
