Bouten is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the philosophical and literary landscape of the 18th century, emphasizing the emergence of feminist ideas and the key figures involved in the early feminist movement. The book likely focuses on the life and theories of Mary Wollstonecraft, while exploring the broader context of women's struggle for emancipation in both France and England. The opening of the treatise sets the stage for a comprehensive examination of the history and philosophy surrounding women's emancipation. It introduces the central thesis that women's gradual liberation from male subjugation is a long-standing issue, shaped by cultural, social, and individual factors. The text discusses early feminist theories and the influence of key philosophers, including Rousseau and Godwin, which paved the way for Wollstonecraft's arguments advocating for women's rights. It also addresses the complexities and challenges faced by the feminist movement, hinting at the opposition from both men and women of the time. The analysis is framed within a broader discourse on societal progress and education's significant role in women's emancipation, positioning Wollstonecraft as a pivotal figure in this historical narrative.
