About this book
Creators: Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902) "The Woman's Bible" by Elizabeth Cady Stanton is a two-part non-fiction book published in 1895 and 1898. Written with a committee of 26 women, it challenges traditional religious interpretations that position women as subservient to men. Stanton sought to promote a liberating theology emphasizing self-development by reinterpreting biblical passages about women. The work sparked intense controversy, becoming a bestseller while alienating many suffragists who feared it would harm their cause. Even close allies formally denounced it, effectively ending Stanton's influence in the suffrage movement. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
