This book presents insights into the complexities of female experience as a young woman, Altiora Peto, navigates the challenges of love, societal constraints, and the search for deeper meaning in life. Written in the late 19th century by an anonymous female author, the book offers a unique perspective on the tensions between personal aspirations and social expectations during a time of great social and intellectual change. Through Altiora's introspective narrative, the author explores themes of independence, self-discovery, and the nature of love. The book delves into philosophical and scientific debates of the time, reflecting the intellectual currents of the era and providing a rich tapestry of ideas that resonate with readers today.

Excerpt from Altiora Peto, Vol. 1

Mamma wants to know what I am always scribbling, - if she was a more sympathetic person I shouldn't always scribble - I should pour my heart out into her confiding bosom instead of upon blank sheets of paper; but it is not possible to feel one's self bursting with thoughts without giving them expression in words. If they are not spoken ones, they must be written ones.
