Women as Topic of “Intellectual Debates” Case Study: “Amiculu Familiei”

Summary/Abstract: The XIXth century is the witness of a real intellectual debate around women’s role and position in the society. Both men and women (for the first time) will get involved in this debate and the written press is one of the media they used as a vehicle for their ideas, for or against women. Thus we chose as a study case to analyze the manners through which this gender discussion develops in the Transylvanian Romanian press of the second half of the XIXth century. Part of a major research project, we limited our analysis, for the timebeing, to a single review that is the Amiculu Familiei, as its declared aim is that of both educating and entertaining its readers.
