British and German reformists—feminists in particular—used the period’s expanded pathways of cultural transfer to generate new discourses as well as to articulate new views of what personal freedom, national character, and international interaction might be. 2018-03-01 23:55:55 2020-03-12 03:00:31 2020-04-01T12:49:26Z 2020-04-01T12:49:26Z 2014-08-27 book 648334 OCN: 891286596 9780472120475 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/30244 eng application/pdf n/a 648334.pdf University of Michigan Press 10.3998/mpub.6536705 100881 10.3998/mpub.6536705 e07ce9b5-7a46-4096-8f0c-bc1920e3d889 b818ba9d-2dd9-4fd7-a364-7f305aef7ee9 9780472120475 Knowledge Unlatched (KU) Ann Arbor 100881 KU Select 2017: Backlist Collection Knowledge Unlatched open access
