and little youngsters–no younger girls no matter. Then we were
under surveillance for 3 extra–at all times with a tutor or a
guard or both. But those months were pleasant as a result of we have been
really getting acquainted with the women. That was a chapter!–
or will probably be–I’ll try to do justice to it.
We realized their language fairly completely–had to; and
they realized ours far more shortly and used it to hasten our
own research.
Jeff, who was never with out studying matter of some sort, had
two little books with him, a novel and a little anthology of verse;
and i had a kind of pocket encyclopedias–a fats little thing,
bursting with info. These were utilized in our education–and theirs.
Then as soon as we had been as much as it, they furnished us with loads of
their own books, and that i went in for the historical past half–I needed to
perceive the genesis of this miracle of theirs.
And that is what occurred, in line with their data.
As to geography–at in regards to the time of the Christian period this
land had a free passage to the sea. I’m not saying where, for good
reasons. But there was a reasonably simple move through that wall of
mountains behind us, and there is little doubt in my thoughts that
these individuals were of Aryan stock, and have been as soon as in contact with
the perfect civilization of the old world. They had been “white,” but
somewhat darker than our northern races because of their fixed
publicity to sun and air.
The country was far bigger then, together with much land past
the go, and a strip of coast. They’d ships, commerce, an army,
a king–for at that time they had been what they so calmly referred to as us
–a bi-sexual race.
What occurred to them first was merely a succession of
historic misfortunes equivalent to have befallen other nations often
enough. They have been decimated by struggle, pushed up from their
coastline till lastly the decreased population, with many of the
males killed in battle, occupied this hinterland, and defended it for
years, in the mountain passes. Where it was open to any doable
assault from below they strengthened the natural defenses in order that
it turned unscalably safe, as we found it.
They had been a polygamous people, and a slave-holding people,
like all of their time; and in the course of the era or two of this
battle to defend their mountain residence they constructed the fortresses,
such as the one we were held in, and different of their oldest buildings,
some nonetheless in use. Nothing but earthquakes may destroy such
structure–large solid blocks, holding by their very own weight.
They should have had efficient workmen and enough of them in these days.
They made a brave battle for his or her existence, however no nation can
stand up against what the steamship firms name “an act of
God.” While the whole fighting power was doing its finest to defend
their mountain pathway, there occurred a volcanic outburst,
with some native tremors, and the outcome was the entire filling
up of the go–their only outlet. Instead of a passage, a new
ridge, sheer and excessive, stood between them and the sea; they had been
walled in, and beneath that wall lay their entire little military.
Only a few men were left alive, save the slaves; and these now seized
their opportunity, rose in revolt, killed their remaining masters
even to the youngest boy, killed the old girls too, and the
mothers, desiring to take possession of the country with the
remaining young ladies and ladies.
But this succession of misfortunes was too much for these
infuriated virgins. There have been many of them, and however few of
these would-be masters, so the young women, as a substitute of submitting,
rose in sheer desperation and slew their brutal conquerors.
This feels like Titus Andronicus, I do know, but that is their
account. I suppose they have been about loopy–are you able to blame them?
There was literally no one left on this beautiful excessive garden
land but a bunch of hysterical girls and a few older slave girls.
That was about two thousand years ago.
At first there was a period of sheer despair. The mountains
towered between them and their outdated enemies, but also between
them and escape. There was no approach up or down or out–they
merely had to stay there. Some have been for suicide, however not the
majority. They will need to have been a plucky lot, as a complete, and so they
determined to dwell–as long as they did live. After all they’d hope,
as youth should, that one thing would occur to vary their fate.
So they set to work, to bury the useless, to plow and sow,
to care for one another.
Speaking of burying the useless, I will set down while I believe
of it, that they’d adopted cremation in in regards to the thirteenth
century, for a similar motive that they’d left off elevating cattle
–they couldn’t spare the room. They were much surprised to
study that we have been nonetheless burying–asked our reasons for it, and
were a lot dissatisfied with what we gave. We advised them of the
perception within the resurrection of the physique, they usually asked if our God
was not as well able to resurrect from ashes as from long corruption.
We informed them of how individuals thought it repugnant to have their beloved
ones burn, they usually asked if it was less repugnant to have them decay.
They had been inconveniently cheap, those ladies.
Well–that authentic bunch of girls set to work to scrub up the
place and make their dwelling as finest they might. Among the
remaining slave women rendered invaluable service, teaching
such trades as they knew. That they had such data as were then
stored, all of the tools and implements of the time, and a most
fertile land to work in.
There have been a handful of the younger matrons who had escaped
slaughter, and some infants had been born after the cataclysm
–however solely two boys, and so they both died.
For five or ten years they labored collectively, growing stronger
and wiser and more and more mutually attached, and then the
miracle happened–one of those young women bore a child. Of
course they all thought there should be a man somewhere, but
none was found. Then they determined it have to be a direct present from
the gods, and positioned the proud mom within the Temple of Maaia
–their Goddess of Motherhood–below strict watch. And there,
as years handed, this surprise-woman bore baby after child, 5
of them–all women.
I did my finest, keenly interested as I’ve always been in
sociology and social psychology, to reconstruct in my thoughts the
actual position of these ancient ladies. There have been some 5 – 6
hundred of them, and so they had been harem-bred; but for the few
preceding generations they’d been reared within the atmosphere of
such heroic wrestle that the inventory should have been toughened
considerably. Left alone in that terrific orphanhood, they had clung
together, supporting one another and their little sisters, and
growing unknown powers within the stress of latest necessity. To this
ache-hardened and work-strengthened group, who had lost not
only the love and care of mother and father, but the hope of ever having
youngsters of their own, there now dawned the new hope.
Here eventually was Motherhood, and though it was not for all
of them personally, it’d–if the facility was inherited–found
here a brand new race.
It could also be imagined how those five Daughters of Maaia,
Children of the Temple, Mothers of the future–they had all of the
titles that love and hope and reverence could give–had been reared.
The entire little nation of ladies surrounded them with loving
service, and waited, between a boundless hope and an equally
boundless despair, to see in the event that they, too, could be mothers.
And so they have been! As quick as they reached the age of twenty-five
they began bearing. Each of them, like her mother, bore 5
daughters. Presently there have been twenty-5 New Women,
Mothers in their very own right, and the whole spirit of the nation
changed from mourning and mere courageous resignation to
proud joy. The older ladies, those who remembered men, died off;
the youngest of all the primary lot after all died too, after a
whereas, and by that time there were left one hundred and fifty-5
parthenogenetic women, founding a new race.
They inherited all that the devoted care of that declining band
of original ones may leave them. Their little nation was fairly secure.
Their farms and gardens have been all in full manufacturing. Such industries
as that they had were in careful order. The records of their past had been
all preserved, and for years the older ladies had spent their time
in the very best educating they had been able to, that they might go away
to the little group of sisters and mothers all they possessed of
talent and information.
There you might have the beginning of Herland! One family, all
descended from one mother! She lived to a hundred years previous;
lived to see her hundred and twenty-5 great-granddaughters
born; lived as Queen-Priestess-Mother of them all; and died with a
nobler satisfaction and a fuller joy than maybe any human soul has
ever recognized–she alone had based a new race!
The primary five daughters had grown up in an ambiance of
holy calm, of awed watchful waiting, of breathless prayer. To
them the longed-for motherhood was not only a personal joy,
however a nation’s hope. Their twenty-5 daughters in flip, with a
stronger hope, a richer, wider outlook, with the devoted love and
care of all of the surviving population, grew up as a holy sisterhood,
their whole ardent youth trying forward to their nice office.
And finally they had been left alone; the white-haired First Mother
was gone, and this one family, 5 sisters, twenty-five first cousins,
and a hundred and twenty-five second cousins, started a brand new race.
Here you may have human beings, unquestionably, but what we
have been sluggish in understanding was how these extremely-ladies, inheriting
only from women, had eliminated not solely sure masculine
traits, which of course we didn’t search for, but so
much of what we had at all times thought essentially feminine.
The tradition of males as guardians and protectors had fairly
died out. These stalwart virgins had no males to concern and therefore
no want of safety. As to wild beasts–there have been none in
their sheltered land.
The facility of mother-love, that maternal instinct we so
extremely laud, was theirs after all, raised to its highest power;
and a sister-love which, even whereas recognizing the precise relationship,
we found it laborious to credit.
Terry, incredulous, even contemptuous, when we have been alone,
refused to imagine the story. “A number of traditions as previous as
Herodotus–and about as trustworthy!
