"Mary Wollstonecraft's words ring as true today - and are as little heeded by government - as when she wrote them, 200 years ago, in her A Vindication of the Rights of Woman" Guardian "The first pebble in the later avalanche of the women's rights movement" -- Melvyn Bragg Guardian "The first great piece of feminist writing" Independent "Changed the world for generations of women to come" Sunday Times "A book that was bold in its time and is now considered the notable forerunner of the women's movement" New York Times
Veronica Martino said Readt it!. This is a must have resource for anyone studing or researching the history of women.. "I recommend this book because it's quite remarkable" according to Bridget M Prunicki. This book is very informative and detailed. I recommend this book because it's quite remarkable.. Have we really progressed? Ronald Bingham As I read this book, I find myself comparing the authors examples of the treatment of women by their fathers/husbands with the way women are today treated by the media.Mary discusses how women are to be kept ignorant of all knowledge and only to be valued for their physical charms (almost every ad on TV/in print). The examples of her contemporaries that she quotes are frighteningly familiar.Why is this so? Who determines that the education of females is not relevant to society. Sure they are allowed to go to school now, but they are still treated with amazing patronization
Ideal for coursework and classroom study, this comprehensive edition of Wollstonecraft’s groundbreaking feminist argument includes illuminating essays by leading scholars that highlight the author’s significant contributions to modern political philosophy, making a powerful case for her as one of the most substantive political thinkers of the Enlightenment era. Mary Wollstonecraft’s visionary treatise, originally published in 1792, was the first book to present women’s rights as an issue of universal human rights. No other scholarly work to date has examined as closely both the ideological moorings and the enduring legacy of Wollstonecraft’s courageous discourse.
