A proposito di questo titolo
 John Stuart Mills Utilitarianism stands as a cornerstone in the realm of ethical philosophy, offering a compelling defense of utilitarianism. Originally published as a series of three articles in Frasers Magazine in 1861, these writings were later compiled into a single book in 1863. Over his lifetime, Mill revised and released the work through four editions, each adding nuanced insights. While Mill touches on utilitarian principles in other notable works like On Liberty and The Subjection of Women, Utilitarianism is where he delivers his most comprehensive exploration of the foundational aspects of utilitarian ethical theory.

    The Subjection of Women - John Stuart Mill
    Nov 7 2026
    The Subjection of Women by John Stuart Mill.

    The Subjection of Women is an essay by English philosopher, political economist and civil servant John Stuart Mill published in 1869, with ideas he developed jointly with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill. J.S. Mill submitted the finished manuscript of their collaborative work On Liberty (1859) soon after her untimely death in late 1858, and then continued work on The Subjection of Women until its completion in 1861. Harriet Taylor Mill wrote an earlier essay The Enfranchisement of Women, published under her own name in The Westminster Review in 1851, which covered much of the same ground, and seems to use similar language for many of its arguments. At the time of its publication, the essay's argument for equality between the sexes was an affront to European conventional norms regarding the status of men and women.
