This edition offers texts from Bathsua Makin and Mary More, and Robert Whitehall's responseto More's argument. Makin describes the appropriate education for London merchants'daughters, arguing thatgirls should be educated and should aspire to follow learned womenin history, and that educated women improve their families and themselves. More argues thatwomen have the right to an education,and that such an education shows that the inequalityof married women under English law is a man-made institution. More's argument drewobjections from her Oxford reader, Robert Whitehall,who preserved her manuscript with hisown. Makin and More enjoyed a measure of public recognition and esteem, yet after theirdeaths, they and their texts were largely ignored until the latetwentieth century.
