Janet Elizabeth Courtney (née Hogarth; 27 November 1865 - 24 September 1954) was an English scholar, writer and feminist. Hogarth studied philosophy and languages at Oxford University during the first decade of allowing women to study there. She was a pioneer of expanding employment opportunities in administration and public service for educated middle-class women in the two decades before World War I. Hogarth had an important role in the production of the celebrated eleventh edition of The Encyclopædia Britannica. Though considered to be a feminist for her advocacy of women's opportunities in the workplace, Hogarth actively opposed extending the vote to women. (From Wikipedia)
