Abstract
Since time immemorial "woman's place" has been considered to be "in the home," with no one venturing to designate just what "home" in this case is or may be. With very few exceptions Sappho, Cleopatra, Queen Elizabeth and one or two others for each of the periods of history-woman stayed "in the home," accepting this as her ordained course. A few objected.
