de L'Assujettissement Des Femmes

John Stuart Mill (20 May 1806- 7 May 1973) was born in London, England. He was the most dominant English-language philosopher of the nineteenth century. He was a naturalist, utilitarian, and liberal whose work investigated the outcomes of a total empiricist outlook. As a result, he attempted to combine the best of eighteenth-century Enlightenment ideas with newly emerging nineteenth-century Romance and Historical Philosophy ideas. He was a member of the Liberal Party and writer of the early feminist work, The Subjection of Women. Mill was also the second Member of Parliament to call for women's right to vote after Henry Hunt in 1832. His most popular works are System of Logic (1843), On Liberty (1859), Utilitarianism (1861), and An Examination of Sir William Hamilton's Philosophy (1865).
