    Influenced by the view of some twentieth-century
    feminists that women's position within the family is
    one of the central factors determining women's social
    position, some historians have underestimated the signi-
    (5) ficance of the woman suffrage movement. These histor-
    ians contend that nineteenth-century suffragism was less
    radical and, hence, less important than, for example, the
    moral reform movement or domestic feminism-two
    nineteenth-century movements in which women strug-
    (10)gled for more power and autonomy within the family.
    True, by emphasizing these struggles, such historians
    have broadened the conventional view of nineteenth-
    century feminism, but they do a historical disservice to
    suffragism. Nineteenth-century feminists and anti-
    (15)feminist alike perceived the suffragists' demand for
    enfranchisement as the most radical element in women's
    protest, in part because suffragists were demanding
    power that was not based on the institution of the
    family, women's traditional sphere. When evaluating
    (20)nineteenth-century feminism as a social force, contem-
    porary historians should consider the perceptions of
    actual participants in the historical events.

    an intellectual tradition
    (D) paid little attention to feminist movements
    (E) expanded the conventional view of nineteenth-
    century feminism
    18.The author of the passage asserts that some
    twentieth-century feminists have influenced some
    historians view of the
    (A) significance of the woman suffrage movement
    (B) importance to society of the family as an
    institution
    (C) degree to which feminism changed nineteenth-
    century society
    (D) philosophical traditions on which contemporary
    feminism is based
    (E) public response to domestic feminism in the
    nineteenth century
