Description
Honor Or Shame? is a book written by Rebecca Sophia Ross and published in 1878. The book explores the themes of honor and shame in society, particularly in relation to women. Ross argues that women are often subjected to societal expectations that place a heavy emphasis on their reputation and behavior, which can lead to feelings of shame and a loss of honor if they do not conform. She also examines the ways in which honor and shame are used as tools of control by those in power, and how they can be used to manipulate individuals and communities. Through her analysis, Ross calls for a reexamination of societal values and a shift towards a more equitable and just system. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the social and cultural attitudes of the late 19th century, and remains relevant today as a commentary on gender and power dynamics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
