- Elizabeth Cady Stanton was a pivotal figure in the USA abolition and women's rights movements. She campaigned for many broader issues important to women beyond the right to vote, including parental and custody rights, divorce, property rights, employment, role in society, health, and and birth control. With Lucretia Coffin Mott, she organized the first Women’s Rights Convention held in Seneca Falls, New York, in 1848. Her published works include The History of Woman Suffrage (6 volumes, 1881-1922), written with Susan B. Anthony and Matilda Joslyn Gage, and her daughter Harriot Stanton Blatch working on the second volume; The Solitude of Self (1892); The Woman's Bible (1895-1898); and her autobiography, Eighty Years & More (1898).

En 1892 Elizabeth Cady Stanton, sufragista, abolicionista y pionera en la lucha por los derechos de las mujeres, escribió un discurso de hondo calado feminista y existencialista en el que defendía la plena autonomía de las mujeres basándose precisamente en la inconmensurable y radical soledad de todos los seres humanos.
Negar a las mujeres una buena preparación y un pleno desarrollo de sus facultades sería atentar contra la mitad de la humanidad, estando como estamos todos condenados y obligados a depender de nuestros propios recursos ante los envites de la vida. De manera sencilla e incontestable, Stanton ofreció argumentos demoledores en favor de la independencia y la libertad femeninas.
Ese memorable discurso, que aunaba de manera tan bella como sugerente la urgencia política y la hondura filosófica, llevaba por título La soledad del ser y es ya historia en mayúsculas del feminismo estadounidense.… (mere)

Published in the late nineteenth century, THE WOMEN'S BIBLE was an unbelievably progressive book for its time, and is still progressive for modern times. Abrahamic religious denominations often purport patriarchal values, and base those principles on their religious texts. In this work, Elizabeth Cady Stanton presents a critical, radical feminist critique of the books of the Christian Bible. She was knowledgeable in Greek, and in history, and was able to offer viewpoints and rationale that were considered too far-reaching for most suffragettes and other supporters of women's rights.
Her goal was that, through reading and considering THE WOMAN'S BIBLE, females would not again allow an external source to dictate the ways in which they lived. Women's lives are as equally valid, valuable, and necessary as those of men. Absolute equality was innate, and the enforced inferiority of religions on the female congregation were false.
At almost 500 pages, the text is a bit of a slog to get through, but it is worth the effort. The author does not suggest that women should divorce themselves from religious beliefs and practices, only that women should understand that most of the dogma and patriarchal traditions were not part of the religions as they were initially conceived. It was through men's adaptation of the religious texts, through translation and teaching, skewed towards a male-dominated scheme. But it doesn't have to be this way.… (mere)

years of fighting for Women to have the Right to Vote.
From defending babies and children's freedoms, she advocates against slavery, then moves strongly - in writings and speeches around the country
and across the Atlantic. She counted Susan B. Anthony and Lucretia Mott among her many, many friends working together to change male
dictatorship and ruling over women after marriage.
While raising SEVEN children and managing big households, she joined with William Lloyd Garrison and Frederick Douglas to change the world.
Sure wish that more had been included about her husband, Henry Stanton
and that Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth's writings had been included - now inspired to order [THE WOMAN'S BIBLE]!… (mere)
