19世纪后期英国现代化与女子高等教育的兴起

Late 19^(th) Century English Modernization and the Rise of Higher Education for Women

19世纪后期英国女子高等教育的兴起既是经济、政治、社会现代化的结果,也是现代化的组成部分。它虽然没有造成两性平等的教育权,却使女性进入原由男性垄断的高等教育领域,接受知识教育和技能训练,获取大学学位,在公共领域挑战男性权威。同时,大学教育锻造女性独立自主的个性和团结协作、关爱社会的公共精神,使她们成为争取妇女各种权益运动的领导者和参与者,推动了两性关系的变革和妇女的进步与发展,从而促进了社会改革和现代化的深入发展。

The rise of English higher education for women in the late 19^th century was not only a result of economic,political and social modernization, but also a part of modernization. Women hadn＇t equal higher educational right with men, but they entered university that had once belonged to males to accept education and skill training, obtained the university degree, challenged to male authority in public. It was because of higher education that women developed independent spirit, the public spirit of unity, cooperation and caring sociality. Women led or took part in fighting for the Women＇s Rights Movement, accelerating the reform of gender relations and women＇s progress and development, and hence greatly promoted development of the social reform and modernization.
