Resumen
ALARCAO, Miguel. I know why the caged Nightingale does not sing: reading Cassandra (1852), by Florence Nightingale (1820-1910). Faces de Eva. Estudos sobre a Mulher [online]. 2021, n.46, pp.101-112. Epub 04-Feb-2022. ISSN 0874-6885. https://doi.org/10.34619/mn5t-brlp.
The unexpected outbreak, at global level, of the Covid-19 pandemic placed issues concerning public health at the top of the world’s political agendas. Bearing this fact in mind, this article presents Cassandra, an essay written in 1852 by Florence Nightingale (1820-1910), setting it in the context of the long Victorian age and relating it to the “female question” and The Subjection of Women (1869), by John Stuart Mill (1806-1873).
