Les Dumas, Alexandre 1824-1895 creator text utu 2009 monographic fr 1 online resource : multiple file formats "Les Femmes qui tuent et les Femmes qui votent" by Alexandre Dumas is a philosophical essay written in the late 19th century. This work explores the themes of women's rights and societal moral obligations, particularly in the context of the law and justice system. Through Dumas’s analysis, he argues for the necessity of legal protections for women and challenges the prevailing moral and legal standards of his time, addressing complex issues surrounding marriage, motherhood, and equality. At the start of this essay, Dumas engages in a pointed discussion about contemporary trials involving women, establishing a direct connection between the acts of violence committed by women and the systemic failures of society to protect their rights. He reflects on recent high-profile cases and critiques the societal and legal frameworks that leave women vulnerable. Dumas contends that these women's actions are not solely personal crimes but are indicative of deeper societal injustices regarding gender roles and legal protections. He introduces the notion that as women begin to assert their rights, they challenge not just individual injustices but the very foundations of societal norms that dictate their treatment.
