Establishing Mary Wollstonecraft as the mother of feminist literature, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman is one of the earliest works of feminist philosophy.
This 1792 volume is a powerfully fierce rebuttal against eighteenth-century educational and political theorists who maintained that women should not be granted the right to education. Mary Wollstonecraft posits the essential nature of women’s education to the strength of a nation and argues that they are human beings who deserve the same rights as those afforded to men. Now regarded as the founder of feminist philosophy, Wollstonecraft’s voice echoes through generations of literary and political movements.

Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797) was an English philosopher and writer, born in London. Best known for her magnum opus ‘A Vindication of the Rights of Woman’ (1792), she’s commonly regarded as the founder of feminist philosophy. A strong advocate for women’s rights, she argued that the equality between the sexes was not due to a lack of female intelligence, but a lack of education. She passed away 11 days after giving birth to her second daughter, Mary Shelley, who went on to become the author of ‘Frankenstein’ (1818).Buy this ebook and get 1 more FREE!
