It investigates the strategies of historians and official politics of remembrance and argues that the link between women's education and emancipation has yet to be properly explained. The author provides numerous original sources and encourages readers to uncover the hidden and give voice to the ignored, providing evidence that contradicts dominant theories. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31 January 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSettled in the nineteenth century, a period of national liberation, this book presents facts about the contribution of women to Serbian culture. The story, however, is of equal contemporary and historical relevance: the work of these authors remained hidden as they were neither adequately evaluated in school curriculums and textbooks nor recognized by the general public. Does the absence from textbooks and literary histories imply their literature is not worth reading? Or, that the histories of literature are simply biased and inadequate? The answers to these questions are elaborated in this book. The author carefully investigates the strategies of historians and official politics of remembrance, arguing that the link between women's education and the emancipation of society has yet to be properly explained. The reader, whether a student, researcher, social scientist, or an intellectual interested in the history, social development, literature, or politics of Serbia, or the Balkan in general, will benefit from the numerous original sources consulted. This book is a reminder that understanding society means uncovering the hidden and giving voice to the ignored, providing evidence that contradicts dominant theories, rather than simply repeating what we are told.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSettled in the nineteenth century, a period of national liberation, this book presents facts about the contribution of women to Serbian culture.
