The themes likely revolve around empowerment, education, and the acknowledgment of women's contributions to society, highlighting the importance of women's roles during this pivotal time in history. At the start of this installment, the magazine introduces a prize competition that invites young women to list and write briefly about significant British women during Queen Victoria's reign.
