Linda (Estonian magazine)

Linda was an Estonian women's magazine published from 1900 to 1917. It played a significant role in the Estonian national awakening and the burgeoning women's movement. The magazine was founded by, and largely edited by, Lilli Suburg, an educator and writer.

Linda focused on topics relevant to women's lives, including education, domestic science, childcare, and literature. It also addressed issues of social justice, equality, and women's rights. Through its articles, essays, and fiction, Linda promoted the idea of women's empowerment and their contribution to Estonian society.

The magazine was a crucial platform for female writers and intellectuals, providing them with a space to express their views and develop their literary skills. Many prominent Estonian female authors contributed to Linda, shaping the literary landscape and paving the way for future generations.

The publication of Linda ceased in 1917 due to the tumultuous political climate surrounding World War I and the subsequent Russian Revolution. However, its legacy as a pioneering women's magazine in Estonia remains significant.
