It has vividly described status of women during the phases of history; her rights and duties, standard of education, lives of Devadasi and widows, female slaves, divorce, remarriage system, the Muslim queens, participation of women in three major movements during Gandhian era, and their sacrifices, status of Dalit women, socio-economic regeneration, nuns in Kerala, women and family welfare, role in labour force and vision of Annie Besant.

2012br. Ci sono opere che hanno letteralmente cambiato il panorama della civiltà, e a questa categoria appartiene senza dubbio l'Encyclopédie di Diderot e d'Alembert. Con i ventotto volumi in folio della prima edizione e l'enorme varietà delle sue 71.818 voci, accompagnate da 2885 tavole, segnò un rivolgimento radicale nel modo di concepire la cultura, presentandosi come la summa dell'Illuminismo. Ma fu - come subito apparve evidente - anche un'impresa economicamente assai redditizia, e in virtù dello stesso motivo per cui il governo francese voleva sequestrarla: in odor di eresia, si vendeva perché sfidava i valori tradizionali e le autorità consolidate. Alle speculazioni dei philosophes, ben presto, fecero quindi da prosaico controcanto le speculazioni di genere assai diverso dei vari editori dell'Enciclopédie, che, mossi da un'avidità senza limiti, rappresentarono la perfetta incarnazione di quella fase della storia economica che prende il nome di "capitalismo selvaggio". Ricostruendo la biografia dell'Encyclopédie, Robert Darnton racconta così un'appassionante storia di spionaggio industriale ante litteram, e al tempo stesso compone un magistrale trattato in cui convergono storia del lavoro e dell'economia, storia delle idee e della cultura, e dove trovano risposta domande fondamentali: in che modo si propagarono nella società i grandi movimenti intellettuali? Che peso ebbero sulla sostanza e sulla diffusione della letteratura la sua base materiale?
