'Hypatia: Or, Woman and Knowledge' is a feminist text by Dora Russell, first published in 1925. The book examines the historical and philosophical struggles for women's rights and equality, using the figure of Hypatia, an ancient philosopher, as a focal point. Russell critiques traditional gender roles and patriarchal structures, advocating for a partnership between the sexes that recognizes shared humanity. Through five chapters, she explores the enduring issues in gender relations and calls for a new understanding of love, morality, and societal duty.
