SCHAEFFER, Maria Lúcia Pallares. As mulheres pedem a palavra: o jornal the spectator e a questão feminina no século XVIII inglês. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 1988, n.67, pp.23-40. ISSN 0100-1574.

Relying mainly on readers' letters published in the English daily newspaper The Spectator, this article aims at forwarding two suggestions: first, that by following the dialogue among people of different backgrounds and interests sponsored by the press, female readers discovered a common ground of problems, ideas, and wishes; second, that English common-women in early 18th Century were not passive and blind believers in the traditional subordinate role of women in society.
