Nadezhda Vasilyevna Stassowa ( Russian Надежда Васильевна Стасова ; born June 12 . Jul / 24. June  1822 greg. In Tsarskoye Selo , † September 27 jul. / 9. October  1895 greg. In St. Petersburg ) was a Russian women's rights activist .

Life

Nadezhda, daughter of the unpaid aristocratic architect Vasily Petrovich Stasov , received a home education. Her feeling of inadequate education made her a lifelong fighter for women's education.

In 1860, Nadezhda, leader of the women's movement in Russia, founded the society for inexpensive housing for the needy in St. Petersburg with Yevgenia Konradi , Marija Trubnikova , Nadezhda Beloserskaya and Anna Filossofowa under the patronage of Grand Duke Michael Nikolayevich . The society also wanted to enable women to do intellectual work for their livelihood and to build a system of higher education for women in Russia. Nadezhda and Marija Trubnikowa turned to scientists and important people in literature . Nadezhda was also able to win over her brother Dmitri's wife for her work. In 1863 they founded the first women's publishing cooperative with Anna Engelhardt . Together with the so-called penitent Magdalene , Nadezhda also looked after prostitutes . She got involved in Sunday Schools , which only existed in St. Petersburg for two years.

Thanks to the efforts of the leading women's rights activists, the public joint lectures for students began in St. Petersburg in 1870, first in the rooms of the 5th grammar school and then in the university of the Vladimir district, so that these lectures became known as the Vladimir courses . In 1878 the higher courses for women under the direction of KN Bestushev-Ryumin , the so-called Bestushev courses , opened. Nadezhda took over the position of overseer without pay and held it with a small interruption until the courses were reorganized in 1889. Simultaneously with the opening of the courses, the Society's articles of association for the provision of funds for the higher courses for women were approved, on whose committee Nadezhda had a seat until her death.

In 1893 Nadezhda became the chairman of the new society to support the students of the higher women's courses , under whose direction Stassowa crèches were set up. Nadezhda worked there tirelessly until her death. During 1894 she organized the Women's Mutual Aid Society , which she did not live to see.
