About this book
In the early 20th century, as global empires expanded and cultural exchanges flourished, "Achter den Sluier in Perzië en Turksch Arabië" by M. E. Hume-Griffith offers a compelling glimpse into the lives of women in Persia and Turkish Arabia. Drawing on her eight years as a missionary's wife, Hume-Griffith reveals the intricate tapestry of daily life, societal norms, and the challenges faced by Eastern women. Unique elements such as the juxtaposition of traditional customs against the backdrop of Western influence and the author's firsthand observations create a vivid narrative. Ideal for historians and civic activists, this document serves as a vital resource for understanding the complexities of gender and culture in a transformative era.
