Paper Summary:
This paper explains how Stanton helped organize the Women's Loyal National League, founded and presided over the National Women's Suffrage Association and spent the greater part of her adult life as one of the primary intellectual and public figures in the fight for women's rights. Despite these achievements, this paper discusses how Stanton was not very well-known.From the Paper:
"In the mid-1800s, the most cherished view of women was that they represented Home and Mother. These were sacred duties, almost on par with religious, eternal truths to which society generally adhered. Biologically, as well, women were considered inferior to men - both in terms of physical strength and intellectual capacity. Women's roles were to nurture men of genius, which was an act of unsurpassed importance if men of genius were to evolve and society were to advance in any way. To challenge this status quo meant not only discomfiting pre-conceived religious and social norms, it meant challenging the very core of "civilized" society."More papers on Elizabeth Cady Stanton:
