The year 1785



This year saw the publication of two women's periodicals. One of them Algemeene Oefenschool der Vrouwen by Margareta Cambon-van der Werken was known to us only by a review article in the Vaderlandsche Letteroefeningen. Now a second article commenting the Oefenschool has been found, confirming the existence of this periodical of which no copies seem to exist any more.

The other was the [[Damespost]], probably not written by a woman, but addressing a female public.
