Letters of a Javanese Princess is a collection of letters written by Raden Adjeng Kartini, a Javanese princess in the late 19th century. The book provides a glimpse into the life of a young woman growing up in a traditional Javanese aristocratic family and her struggles to break free from the constraints of her society. Kartini's letters reveal her deep desire for education and her passion for women's rights. She wrote extensively about the importance of education for women and the need to empower them to achieve their full potential. The book also sheds light on the cultural and social norms of Java during the Dutch colonial period. The letters are a powerful testament to Kartini's intelligence, courage, and determination to make a difference in the lives of women in Java. Overall, Letters of a Javanese Princess is a fascinating and inspiring read that offers a unique perspective on the history of women's rights in Indonesia.Translated From The Original Dutch By Agnes Louise Symmers With A Foreword By Louis Couperus.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
