Sarah Grand
Sarah Grand (1854–1943) was a British feminist writer best known for coining the term "New Woman," which described independent, progressive women challenging traditional roles. Her novels, such as "The Heavenly Twins" (1893), tackled controversial topics like women's education, marriage, and sexuality, reflecting her advocacy for social reform.
