- Nota:
- Almanak voor de Jeugd was published 1827 - 1839, Amsterdam, by G.J.A. Beijerinck.
The Almanak voor de Jeugd contained an annual year calendar with religious holidays, and consists mainly of moralising stories and poems specially written for children
Anna Barbara Van Meerten-Schilperoort, writer, educator and school teacher, is herself responsible for all the stories and the play and will continue to do so over twenty years. For the little poems, which she loves but does not write herself, she is dependent on the input of others.
Van Meerten-Schilperoort published several books on education, advice to women, novels, and other works. In 1821–1835, she was the editor of the paper Penelope. Her school became one of the most notable institutes of education for women in the Netherlands. She spoke for difference feminism, and argued that women should be given a more public role in the service of the state. In 1832 she started philanthropic work for the betterment of the conditions of female prisoners, and in 1841, she founded the charity association Hulpbetoon aan Eerlijke en Vlijtige Armoede, which was the first women's organization in the Netherlands. She has been referred to as the founder of the organized women's rights movement in the Netherlands. - Permalink:
