The Woman's World

The Woman's World was a Victorian women's magazine published by Cassell between 1886 and 1890, edited by Oscar Wilde between 1887 and 1889, and by Ella Hepworth Dixon from 1888.

[4] Stephen Calloway and David Colvin characterized the change as one which eliminated connotations of "bas-bourgeois snobbery and reflected his advanced views on female emancipation".

The Woman's World addressed an élite but expanding readership of middle and upper class educated women with literary and social credentials.

[6]Wilde managed to entice contributions from well-known writers and distinguished figures including, Elisabeth of Wied (the Queen of Romania), Princess Christian and Marie Corelli.
