Promocja statusu rodziny i kobiety w pedagogicznych poglądach Aleksandra Wóycickiego
The promotion of the status of the family and women in the pedagogical views of Aleksander Wóycicki

Summary/Abstract: In the writings of Aleksander Wóycicki we see the promotion of the status of women and the family. The family is considered as a temple, while the woman is treated as a priestess. Understood as a small society, the family is understood to be the basis of the wider society and nation. Wóycicki identifies the collapse of the family with the collapse of the entire society. Yet, he connects its fall to the earlier "fall" of women - by which he means a wide emancipation of women which deprives them of men's protection. In his texts, Wóycicki also outlines plans for the repair of the situation of the family, as well as of the woman and her child. This plan involves the woman's right to self-protection and to the protection of her work, especially during pregnancy and motherhood. Furthermore, this plan can be implemented at the present time.
