Beschreibung

<em>Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring </em> Mary Wollstonecraft is widely hailed as the mother of modern feminism. The book that made her famous, <em>A Vindication of the Rights of Woman</em>, is a work of worldwide renown. Yet the range of her achievements as a thinker and writer reaches far beyond this text. She was a multi-faceted author, and although the condition of women was a constant preoccupation throughout her life, she wrote on a wide variety of topics and in a range of literary forms, some of which she created herself. This <em>Very Short Introduction </em>examines the conditions for Wollstonecraft's emergence as a feminist, but also her status as an educator, a political thinker, and a romantic. E. J. Clery also considers the reception Mary Wollstonecraft has received over the last two centuries and argues that readers need to look at her gamut of activities anew in the 21st century. ABOUT THE SERIES: The<em> Very Short Introductions series </em>from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
