| Summary | "The Women of Tomorrow" by William Hard is a collection of essays written in the early 20th century. The work explores the evolving role of women in modern society, particularly focusing on education, employment, and the changing dynamics of marriage and motherhood. It discusses how the postponement of marriage and increased educational opportunities for women have transformed their position in society and family life. The opening of the text introduces a fictional storyline with the characters Mary and John, illustrating the societal tensions surrounding love and marriage in an increasingly competitive economic landscape. Mary represents the modern woman who has pursued her own career while waiting for her fiancé, John, to establish his financial footing before they marry. Their relationship highlights the complex interplay of ambition, societal standards, and emotional needs as they navigate the changing ideals of love and partnership. This introductory chapter sets the tone for discussions on the challenges and triumphs facing women as they assert their independence and redefine their identities within the context of love and work.
