Abstract :
This article explains the reasons and motivations of knowledgeable and pioneering women of the Qajar era in order to make themselve enjoy the modern education. The women's need for education and training in a new and non-traditional style was a prerequisite for all their desires, because without an effective education, their other desires would not be possible to be fulfilled. The findings show that reasons such as: the emergence of competent women to raise children, equalization with men, the right to vote, promotion of the family value, and the acquisition of rights and competencies formed their intellectual framework in justifying the patriarchal society of that time.The demands voices of women, and even men alike, were reflected in an atmosphere that was the inheritor of traditional cultures, religious readings and practices mixed with prejudice and self-thinking of its performers, that made the realization of this dream difficult. The women's community has set its expectations in the role of mother and wife from a long-term strategic perspective, and has left the idea of its independent individuality to the women of the future. The main source in this research is the texts of Habalamatiin Kolkata newspaper.
