io8 Ellen Key
When Ellen Key chose as a motto for her
" Missbnikad Kvinnokraft," "Woman's His-
tory is Love," it must have been her belief that
at the least the women would not attempt to
dispute her, and that the little book would
be all that was necessary on this subject, on
which she would have preferred to keep silent
and where she imagined she would be readily
understood. Instead, there ensued a battle
which found its vent in a mass of articles,
and fifteen pamphlets, in which women as-
sailed Ellen Key for her false doctrines. All
these writings proved that Ellen Key had hit
vulnerable points in the equal-rights women's
system. The little book was sharply criti-
cised from suffrage quarters also in neighbour-
ing countries; though hailed with sympathy
and admiration from all other sides: They
spoke of "desertion" and in their excitement
overlooked what she had spoken and written
before in the same line.
The fanatical sectarianism, which unfor-
timately adheres to many woman's rights
champions, brings in its train, as always
where such spirit reigns, a prejudiced pre-
sentation of an opponent's opinion. "Ellen
Key has become unfaithful to the ideas of her
youth,
'
