excerpt from Olive Schreiner and Isadora Duncan
by Floyd Dell
I hope that no one will see in the combination of these names a merely sensational contrast. To me there is something extraordinarily
appropriate in describing them together. The work of Olive Schreiner and the work of Isadora Duncan supplement each other.
It is the drawback of the woman's movement that it may appear too fiercely narrow. That women should make so much fuss about getting the
vote, or that they should so excite themselves over the prospect of working for wages will appear incomprehensible to many people who have a
proper regard for art, for literature, and for the graces of social intercourse. It is only when the woman's movement is seen broadly, in a variety
of its aspects that there comes the realization that here is a cause in which every fine aspiration has a place, a cause from which sincere lovers
of truth and beauty have nothing really to fear.
Olive Schreiner
Mrs. Olive Schreiner stands, by virtue of her latest book "Women and Labor," as an avid supporter of sending women into every field of
economic activity. On behalf of this doctrine, she has expressed such eloquence and passion that she has become one of the most important
figures in modern literature. She has become the spokesman for all women who have not been heard, across all space and time.
