Epistles on Women is a collection of poems written by Lucy Aikin, a prominent 18th-century English writer and historian. The book consists of a series of letters, or epistles, addressed to various women throughout history, including Mary Queen of Scots, Mary Wollstonecraft, and Queen Elizabeth I. Aikin uses these letters to explore the roles and experiences of women in society, touching on themes such as love, marriage, motherhood, and education. She also draws on her own experiences as a woman and writer to offer insights and advice to her readers. The poems are written in a clear and accessible style, making them suitable for a wide range of readers. Overall, Epistles on Women is a thought-provoking and insightful work that sheds light on the experiences of women throughout history.Come then, my friend; my devious way pursue; Pierce every clime, and search all ages through; Stretch wide and wider yet thy liberal mind, And grasp the sisterhood of womankind: With mingling anger mark, and conscious pride, The sex by whom exalted or decried; Crusht by the savage, fettered by the slave, But served, but honoured, by the good and brave.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
