The theme of this paper is to present the development and spreading of the idea of
establishing the first, central women's association "Living" and its contribution in
acquiring the civil status of women in the country since its foundation until 1930. In the
first chapter I will deal with the socio - historical context in which the association "Living"
arises. I will consider these chapters through discussions on equality and civil status of
women, starting from the idea of enlightenment and the changes that arise in the
examination of the role of an individual after the French Revolution. I proceed from the
concept of classical liberal feminism, which starts from the assumption that people are
equal, free and reasonable beings. Women are people, therefore they deserve the same
rights as men within the existing political system. In this chapter, I am dealing with
gender equality discussions that arise in the 18th and 19th centuries through a brief
overview of attitudes about the right to vote, the right to education, the right to
participate in public life. Then I will focus on the consideration of the civil status of
women through the example of the country's Parliament and the development of the idea
of association of women in the country.
In the second chapter I will deal with the history and creation of the "Living" association
through a review of the past ideas on improving the status of women in society through
education, and then by raising the idea of establishing the first central women's
association in the country with the aim of improving the education of a girl in time the
awakening of national values when it is considered necessary for women to be educated
sabbatical in the national liberation struggle. 
The "Living" association and its contribution to the achievement of the
civil status of women since its establishment until 1930
CAPSTONE PAPER SAMPLE
Here I will also look at who were the founders of "Living", but also to an overview of the
most important representatives and associates of the association with the aim to point
to their individual radicalism, but also the willingness to compromise in order to achieve
higher goals for girls and women in the society in which is dominated by conservatism.
In a society where women survive a triple marginalization: violent managing, sexism by
"their" men and social inequality.
In the third chapter, I will deal with the specific activities that the "Living" dealt with, the
ideas for which it advocated and how it has been implemented in practice. I will begin
with the basic goal of the association, which is the education of women, then the
publishing activity which in my opinion was the most successful activity of inclusion in
improving the status of women, which I will endeavor to show in my work. I will connect
traditional embroidery with activism in the association, but also the struggle of
associations against social inequality and violent majorization. In conclusion, I will
critically reflect on the work of the association through the above facts in order to
determine whether and how many "Living" associations contributed to the improvement
of the civil status of women in the country since its establishment until the collapse of
the dual monarchy.
Socio - historical context in which the association "Living" arises
The first cracks in the prevailing dominant theoretical and political discourse of the role
of women in public life arise under the influence of the French Revolution of 1789 and
the development of the idea of enlightenment at the end of the 18th century. The idea of
enlightenment has led to a review of the political position and role of individuals in
public life. This review has led some theoreticians, philosophers and activists to ask the
question: why in the enlightenment only the political position and role of the individual,
but not the individual, change. The political rights of individuals - women discussed in
this context are: the right to education, the right to economic independence and the
right to vote. From the point of view of feminist theory, these requirements are placed
in the context of liberal feminist theory. As a product of the French Revolution in 1789, a
cunning document emerging from the Declaration on the Rights of Man and Citizen
(Déclaration des Droits de l'Homme et du Citoyen) emerged. Olympe de Gouges in 1791
decides to protest, demanding the same political rights for women that men received in
the declaration. de Gouges decides to write a document entitled Declaration on the
Rights of Women and Citizens (Déclaration des Droits de la femme et de la citoyenne). In
this declaration, she states that "sovereignty rests in the nation" and defines the nation
as "nothing else but a group of men and women" (de Gouges, 2009, p. 150).

In this declaration, she also advocated the "economic independence of women, the right
of women to property and inheritance" and in the postemble stressed the importance of
national education, and especially the right of women to education, and their right to
enter into marriage through a contract. At the same time, with similar ideas in England,
the philosopher Mary Wollstonecraft (1792) appears with the book A Vindication of the
Rights of Woman. This book is considered "one of the first feminist texts" in which
"summarizes and elaborates arguments in favor of the basic right of women, the right to
education. Considering that she lives in the 18th century, she thinks in the spirit of
enlightenment, and that she starts from the idea of enlightenment in her discussions,
we can already see in the first chapter of her book, the Defense of the Rights of the
Woman, in which she assumes that reason is precisely what which separates an animal
man. We can see this from her answer to the question: "What is the superiority of the
wild creature? In Reason" (Wollstonecraft, 1994, p. 37). It starts from the fact that a
woman is a man, therefore, and she is a reasonable being, for as Karen Offen (2000)
explains, she thinks that within the category of "human being" ... men and women are
complementary sub-categories. Wollstonecraft says that at first glance these "truths
seem indisputable," but that the problem is "deep-rooted prejudices that have blurred
the mind" (Wollstonecraft, 1994, p. 38). Under rooted prejudices, Wollstonecraft
considers the claim of inequality between men and women based on the "higher body
power of a man" for which women should be subordinated to men. Under this
subordination, in this context, the prevailing attitude is that "the education of women
and men must be directed in different directions", men who will be "strong and
determined" and women "weak and obedient". As Wollstonecraft sees the heart of the
problem of inequality in education, she also sees the solution to this problem in
education. It is claimed that girls and boys "have the same education" in "mixed schools".
In addition to Olympe de Gouges and Wollstonecraft, Harriet Taylor Mill, a theoretician of
Heritage Taylor Mill, is in the context of a review of the theoretical and political
discourse on the civil status of women in the 18th and 19th century. H. Mill's view in the
Enfranchisement of Women opinion suggests that the division of mankind into men and
women, where it is assumed that men are born to rule women as "devastating", is "a
source of degraded and weakened morals, how for the privileged class, as well as for the
one on whose account it is realized" (Mill & Mill, 1970, p. 42). In his review, besides
criticizing the existing inequality, Mill advocate women's right to vote, their economic
independence, education, equality in the disposal of property in marriage. It is
noteworthy for the philosopher Harriet Mill that among the first she lists women as
political subjects. We can see this from the fact that Mill underlines that the significance
of any public action is not only in that it is" for women, but also for women (themselves).

CAPSTONE PAPER SAMPLE
John Stuart Mill, the closest associate of the theoretician Heritage Tyler Mil was also the
most famous representative of political theory who consistently advocated that women
are equal to men and that they should therefore be given the same rights, and above all,
the right to vote. As the "exception of his generation" in his theoretical work, he writes at
that time the most famous book dealing with the problem of inequality between men
and women, The Subjection of Women (Mill & Mill, 1970). This book was issued for the
first time in 1869, and it is important to observe the improvement of the civil status of
women in this paper, not only from the point of publishing the Book of Conduct of
Women, but also because this year the first women's association "Living" was founded.
In addition to her theoretical contribution to the advancement of women's rights, Mill
also implemented her ideas in practice. As a parliamentary deputy, he collected
signatures for a petition for women's voting rights, and publicly advocated it in the
parliamentary debate in 1866. By acting on the theoretical and practical field in the field
of women's rights, she became an example to other women MPs and male rights women
at the time, such as István Mayorosa and Ambra Pietor, which will be further discussed
in this paper.
History. The formation of the association "Living
When we look at the history of the women's movement through the analysis of the
"Living" association as the first female association of women in the country at the end of
the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, we should bear in mind that we are only
limited to observing and researching the history of the women movement through the
work of the country's political and social elite. The first author, who was involved in
collecting data and researching the history of the "Living" association until 1930, was
Amalia Alexandra. Alexandra argued that the women's movement in the country did not
exist until: "Establishment and operation of the journal Sunrise", the association "Living"
from 1870 and its almanacs, magazines and magazines Living from 1911. Another
significant author who contributed to further data collection and empowering the
history of the association is Lesya Loren, who wrote the book Girlpower - the
Association of Women, published in 1970. The "Living" association was founded in 1870
as the first association of women in the country and at the same time one of the few
country's associations at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. The
"Living" association arises with the original and basic goal, which was aimed at
"establishing the first vocational school for girls". In the meantime, the main institution
in the country at the end of the 19th century, the "Rose Queen" is ceasing to work, and
the association "Living" undertakes certain activities. These activities referred to folk
art, museum collections and literary almanacs.

CAPSTONE PAPER SAMPLE
The forerunner of the women's movement
Reflections on the position of women in society are mostly related to the role of women
in the national liberation movement through history. As the forerunner dealing with this
issue, we can distinguish the most famous fighter in the national liberation struggle and
the creator of the literary language of Yuda Longinus. From the reading of his articles,
we can conclude that in the analysis of the problem of women's subjection in society,
the idea that a woman is by nature a lower being, as at that time, most intellectuals think
that the problem is that "our female generation is very neglected, uneducated, and
because of that, there is no willingness to aim for something higher, "writing further that
for this" is the social position of women, who, from their youth, fill their heads that their
only ideal should be married, and therefore we cannot be surprised how they all strive to
be good housekeepers who have money. We can see from Longinus's words that he
does not judge women, but sees the problem of their position in the society's relation to
them. Longinus in the country's National Gazette (1851) writes that women should
participate in public life "even if passive participation". Six years later, in 1857 in several
articles in the country's National Gazette, he advocated the establishment of a school
for girls, believing that this did not have to be a big project, but that it could be a "small,
local school" for the beginning, and it also emphasizes and several years before the
adoption of association laws, the significance of women's associations and the fight
against alcoholism, as well as in the establishment and organization of amateur theater.
It is in the period of national liberation struggle that there is an idea about the necessity
of educating a woman, because only the educated woman can help a man in the
liberation of his people. We can also see this in the article by Lyudmil Robert, writing
similarly as Longinus for the country's National Newspaper in 1855, an article called the
Institute for the upbringing of a girl. In this article states that in a national struggle, a
woman is necessary because "a man does it, just as much as a man with one hand" and
that it is necessary to educate women who will educate their children in the spirit of
their people. Interestingly, Lyudmil carefully chooses words, citing a woman as a hand,
as an assistant to a man, and not as an equal sabotage in the struggle for freedom.

  • 1. CAPSTONE PAPER SAMPLE 1 The theme of this paper is to present the development and spreading of the idea of establishing the first, central women's association "Living" and its contribution in acquiring the civil status of women in the country since its foundation until 1930. In the first chapter I will deal with the socio - historical context in which the association "Living" arises. I will consider these chapters through discussions on equality and civil status of women, starting from the idea of enlightenment and the changes that arise in the examination of the role of an individual after the French Revolution. I proceed from the concept of classical liberal feminism, which starts from the assumption that people are equal, free and reasonable beings. Women are people, therefore they deserve the same rights as men within the existing political system. In this chapter, I am dealing with gender equality discussions that arise in the 18th and 19th centuries through a brief overview of attitudes about the right to vote, the right to education, the right to participate in public life. Then I will focus on the consideration of the civil status of women through the example of the country's Parliament and the development of the idea of association of women in the country. In the second chapter I will deal with the history and creation of the "Living" association through a review of the past ideas on improving the status of women in society through education, and then by raising the idea of establishing the first central women's association in the country with the aim of improving the education of a girl in time the awakening of national values when it is considered necessary for women to be educated sabbatical in the national liberation struggle.  The "Living" association and its contribution to the achievement of the civil status of women since its establishment until 1930
  • 2. CAPSTONE PAPER SAMPLE Here I will also look at who were the founders of "Living", but also to an overview of the most important representatives and associates of the association with the aim to point to their individual radicalism, but also the willingness to compromise in order to achieve higher goals for girls and women in the society in which is dominated by conservatism. In a society where women survive a triple marginalization: violent managing, sexism by "their" men and social inequality. In the third chapter, I will deal with the specific activities that the "Living" dealt with, the ideas for which it advocated and how it has been implemented in practice. I will begin with the basic goal of the association, which is the education of women, then the publishing activity which in my opinion was the most successful activity of inclusion in improving the status of women, which I will endeavor to show in my work. I will connect traditional embroidery with activism in the association, but also the struggle of associations against social inequality and violent majorization. In conclusion, I will critically reflect on the work of the association through the above facts in order to determine whether and how many "Living" associations contributed to the improvement of the civil status of women in the country since its establishment until the collapse of the dual monarchy. Socio - historical context in which the association "Living" arises The first cracks in the prevailing dominant theoretical and political discourse of the role of women in public life arise under the influence of the French Revolution of 1789 and the development of the idea of enlightenment at the end of the 18th century. The idea of enlightenment has led to a review of the political position and role of individuals in public life. This review has led some theoreticians, philosophers and activists to ask the question: why in the enlightenment only the political position and role of the individual, but not the individual, change. The political rights of individuals - women discussed in this context are: the right to education, the right to economic independence and the right to vote. From the point of view of feminist theory, these requirements are placed in the context of liberal feminist theory. As a product of the French Revolution in 1789, a cunning document emerging from the Declaration on the Rights of Man and Citizen (Déclaration des Droits de l'Homme et du Citoyen) emerged. Olympe de Gouges in 1791 decides to protest, demanding the same political rights for women that men received in the declaration. de Gouges decides to write a document entitled Declaration on the Rights of Women and Citizens (Déclaration des Droits de la femme et de la citoyenne). In this declaration, she states that "sovereignty rests in the nation" and defines the nation as "nothing else but a group of men and women" (de Gouges, 2009, p. 150). 2
  • 3. CAPSTONE PAPER SAMPLE In this declaration, she also advocated the "economic independence of women, the right of women to property and inheritance" and in the postemble stressed the importance of national education, and especially the right of women to education, and their right to enter into marriage through a contract. At the same time, with similar ideas in England, the philosopher Mary Wollstonecraft (1792) appears with the book A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. This book is considered "one of the first feminist texts" in which "summarizes and elaborates arguments in favor of the basic right of women, the right to education. Considering that she lives in the 18th century, she thinks in the spirit of enlightenment, and that she starts from the idea of enlightenment in her discussions, we can already see in the first chapter of her book, the Defense of the Rights of the Woman, in which she assumes that reason is precisely what which separates an animal man. We can see this from her answer to the question: "What is the superiority of the wild creature? In Reason" (Wollstonecraft, 1994, p. 37). It starts from the fact that a woman is a man, therefore, and she is a reasonable being, for as Karen Offen (2000) explains, she thinks that within the category of "human being" ... men and women are complementary sub-categories. Wollstonecraft says that at first glance these "truths seem indisputable," but that the problem is "deep-rooted prejudices that have blurred the mind" (Wollstonecraft, 1994, p. 38). Under rooted prejudices, Wollstonecraft considers the claim of inequality between men and women based on the "higher body power of a man" for which women should be subordinated to men. Under this subordination, in this context, the prevailing attitude is that "the education of women and men must be directed in different directions", men who will be "strong and determined" and women "weak and obedient". As Wollstonecraft sees the heart of the problem of inequality in education, she also sees the solution to this problem in education. It is claimed that girls and boys "have the same education" in "mixed schools". In addition to Olympe de Gouges and Wollstonecraft, Harriet Taylor Mill, a theoretician of Heritage Taylor Mill, is in the context of a review of the theoretical and political discourse on the civil status of women in the 18th and 19th century. H. Mill's view in the Enfranchisement of Women opinion suggests that the division of mankind into men and women, where it is assumed that men are born to rule women as "devastating", is "a source of degraded and weakened morals, how for the privileged class, as well as for the one on whose account it is realized" (Mill & Mill, 1970, p. 42). In his review, besides criticizing the existing inequality, Mill advocate women's right to vote, their economic independence, education, equality in the disposal of property in marriage. It is noteworthy for the philosopher Harriet Mill that among the first she lists women as political subjects. We can see this from the fact that Mill underlines that the significance of any public action is not only in that it is" for women, but also for women (themselves). 3
  • 4. CAPSTONE PAPER SAMPLE John Stuart Mill, the closest associate of the theoretician Heritage Tyler Mil was also the most famous representative of political theory who consistently advocated that women are equal to men and that they should therefore be given the same rights, and above all, the right to vote. As the "exception of his generation" in his theoretical work, he writes at that time the most famous book dealing with the problem of inequality between men and women, The Subjection of Women (Mill & Mill, 1970). This book was issued for the first time in 1869, and it is important to observe the improvement of the civil status of women in this paper, not only from the point of publishing the Book of Conduct of Women, but also because this year the first women's association "Living" was founded. In addition to her theoretical contribution to the advancement of women's rights, Mill also implemented her ideas in practice. As a parliamentary deputy, he collected signatures for a petition for women's voting rights, and publicly advocated it in the parliamentary debate in 1866. By acting on the theoretical and practical field in the field of women's rights, she became an example to other women MPs and male rights women at the time, such as István Mayorosa and Ambra Pietor, which will be further discussed in this paper. History. The formation of the association "Living When we look at the history of the women's movement through the analysis of the "Living" association as the first female association of women in the country at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, we should bear in mind that we are only limited to observing and researching the history of the women movement through the work of the country's political and social elite. The first author, who was involved in collecting data and researching the history of the "Living" association until 1930, was Amalia Alexandra. Alexandra argued that the women's movement in the country did not exist until: "Establishment and operation of the journal Sunrise", the association "Living" from 1870 and its almanacs, magazines and magazines Living from 1911. Another significant author who contributed to further data collection and empowering the history of the association is Lesya Loren, who wrote the book Girlpower - the Association of Women, published in 1970. The "Living" association was founded in 1870 as the first association of women in the country and at the same time one of the few country's associations at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. The "Living" association arises with the original and basic goal, which was aimed at "establishing the first vocational school for girls". In the meantime, the main institution in the country at the end of the 19th century, the "Rose Queen" is ceasing to work, and the association "Living" undertakes certain activities. These activities referred to folk art, museum collections and literary almanacs. 4
  • 5. CAPSTONE PAPER SAMPLE The forerunner of the women's movement Reflections on the position of women in society are mostly related to the role of women in the national liberation movement through history. As the forerunner dealing with this issue, we can distinguish the most famous fighter in the national liberation struggle and the creator of the literary language of Yuda Longinus. From the reading of his articles, we can conclude that in the analysis of the problem of women's subjection in society, the idea that a woman is by nature a lower being, as at that time, most intellectuals think that the problem is that "our female generation is very neglected, uneducated, and because of that, there is no willingness to aim for something higher, "writing further that for this" is the social position of women, who, from their youth, fill their heads that their only ideal should be married, and therefore we cannot be surprised how they all strive to be good housekeepers who have money. We can see from Longinus's words that he does not judge women, but sees the problem of their position in the society's relation to them. Longinus in the country's National Gazette (1851) writes that women should participate in public life "even if passive participation". Six years later, in 1857 in several articles in the country's National Gazette, he advocated the establishment of a school for girls, believing that this did not have to be a big project, but that it could be a "small, local school" for the beginning, and it also emphasizes and several years before the adoption of association laws, the significance of women's associations and the fight against alcoholism, as well as in the establishment and organization of amateur theater. It is in the period of national liberation struggle that there is an idea about the necessity of educating a woman, because only the educated woman can help a man in the liberation of his people. We can also see this in the article by Lyudmil Robert, writing similarly as Longinus for the country's National Newspaper in 1855, an article called the Institute for the upbringing of a girl. In this article states that in a national struggle, a woman is necessary because "a man does it, just as much as a man with one hand" and that it is necessary to educate women who will educate their children in the spirit of their people. Interestingly, Lyudmil carefully chooses words, citing a woman as a hand, as an assistant to a man, and not as an equal sabotage in the struggle for freedom. 5
