Anna Maria Mozzoni (5 May 1837 – 14 June 1920) is commonly held as the founder of the woman's movement in Italy.

[3] In 1864, she wrote Woman and her social relationships on the occasion of the revision of the Italian Civil Code (La donna e i suoi rapporti sociali in occasione della revisione del codice italiano), a feminist critique of Italian family law.

In 1878 Mozzoni represented Italy at the International Congress on Women's Rights in Paris.

[1] In 1879, she published her translation from English into Italian of The Subjection of Women by John Stuart Mill.
