Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The lives of women of the past, when they have been recorded, have often been written because they were different from that of their contemporaries. Such women have been hailed as ‘pioneers’, ‘ahead of their time’ or ‘revolutionaries’ and, as a result, attract the interest of historians seeking to understand what set them apart and why. Whilst it is important that such women become known, there is however a risk that their more exceptional lives may eclipse those who did not break the mould per se but were more conventional. They may not have been trailblazers or spearheaded new movements like, for example, the suffragettes, yet such women deserve to be known too. Greatness, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder, and this article argues Eleanor Frewen Turner was a great woman. | ||
