Document Summary
The individuality of each human soul : the point i wish plainly to bring before you on this occasion is the individuality of each human soul. Two types of individuality: our protestant idea, the right of individual conscience and judgement , our republican idea, individual citizenship . Education and fulfillment of women"s duties: the education that will fit [woman] to discharge the duties in the largest sphere of human usefulness will best fit her for whatever special work she may be compelled to do so. I feel, with dejection and amazement, that among our geniuses and talented writers or speakers, few or none have yet really spoken to this people, created a single image-making work for them (34). As wives, mothers, housekeepers, cooks, they need a different curriculum from boys who are to fill all positions. Women are proving their equality every day: the chief cooks in our great hotels and ocean steamers are men.
