Abstract

In historiographical works, there are many mentions of the lives of women who wrote works in the field of poetry and literature or had opinions in mysticism and religious sciences (jurisprudence and principles); But in the field of thinking and theorizing, or in the field of history, astronomy, philosophy, etc., there are few names of them. Few written works have been left about women poets and scholars, and our familiarity with them is mainly through the passing references of historical sources; Therefore, two questions come to mind; First, why women have rarely left a written work, and secondly, why women have rarely entered other scientific fields, except in the field of literature and poetry. The answer to these questions is the subject of the upcoming article. The findings of this research indicate that illiteracy, mental and physical disability, lack of financial independence, and lack of privacy are not valid reasons to justify the small contribution of women in the production of written works; Because even competent and literate women have not left much scientific or non-scientific works. It can be said that the only reason for the insignificant contribution of women in the production of written works was the level of society’s expectations from them

Keywords: Women writers, written works of women, Qajar period
