What qualifies this for the ISFDB? The Great Plan (1913) by Edith
Huntington Mason. Also in the SF Encyclopedia where it is characterized as
"marginally Near Future" (whatever that means) and summarized
as "rich young American woman establishes a utopian enclave on
the banks of the Rhine in Germany, with the intention of upraising
German women to a status equal to men."

That sounds like it was set in the near future at the time it was written, which
is now in our past, much like all those thrilling tales of the postapocalyptic
future of 2000AD. The summary certainly sounds like SF to me.
