The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women is a controversial book written by Scottish Protestant leader John Knox in 1558. The book argues that female rulers, particularly Mary Tudor and Mary of Guise, were unnatural and contrary to God's law. Knox believed that women were inferior to men and that their rule would lead to chaos and disorder. He also argued that women were too emotional and weak to rule, and that their reign would be influenced by their personal relationships and emotions rather than sound judgment. The book caused a great deal of controversy and was widely criticized by many, including Queen Elizabeth I of England. Despite this, it became an influential text in the Protestant Reformation and helped shape the views of many on the role of women in society and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
