1 янв 1852 г. - "Cassandra" by Florence Nightingale

Описание:

- NB: written in the period immediately preceding her departure for the Crimean War in 1854
- ferocious attack on that most sacred of Victorian institutions: the family

- her vocation as a nurse was thwarted by the opposition of her sister and parents
- saw her experience mirrored in others
- women could find no outlet in "a cold and oppressive conventional atmosphere" to satisfy their "Passion, intellect" and "moral activity"
