A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (a feminist literature classic)
Author: Mary Wollstonecraft
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
Mary Wollstonecraft's 'A Vindication of the Rights of Woman' is a groundbreaking feminist work that criticizes the prevailing attitudes towards women in the late 18th century. Wollstonecraft argues for women's rights to education and independence, challenging the traditional perceptions of women as merely decorative objects. The book is written in a persuasive and didactic style, using logical arguments and rhetorical strategies to advocate for gender equality. 'A Vindication of the Rights of Woman' is a significant work in the feminist literary canon, inspiring future generations of women to fight for their rights. Mary Wollstonecraft, a pioneering feminist philosopher and writer, was motivated to write this book due to her own experiences as a woman in a male-dominated society. She believed that women deserved the same opportunities as men and sought to dismantle the patriarchal structures that oppressed them. I highly recommend 'A Vindication of the Rights of Woman' to readers interested in feminist literature and the history of women's rights movements. Wollstonecraft's eloquent arguments and passionate advocacy for gender equality make this book a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the roots of modern feminism.

A Vindication of the Rights of Men
Author: Mary Wollstonecraft
Publisher: Jazzybee Verlag
ISBN: 3849649741
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 88
Book Description
In 1790 came that "extraordinary outburst of passionate intelligence," Mary Wollstonecraft's reply to Edmund Burke's attack on the principles of the French Revolution entitled a "Vindication of the Rights of Men." In this pamphlet she held up to scorn Burke's defence of monarch and nobility, his merciless sentimentality. "It is one of the most dashing political polemics in the language," Mr. Taylor writes enthusiastically, "and has not had the attention it deserves. . . . For sheer virility and grip of her verbal instruments it is probably the finest of her works. Some of her sentences have the quality of a sword-edge, and they flash with the rapidity of a practised duellist. It was written at a white heat of indignation; yet it is altogether typical of the writer that, in the midst of the work, quite suddenly, she had one of her fits of callousness and morbid temper, and declared she would not go on. With great skill Johnson persuaded her to take it up again; and with equal suddenness her eagerness returned, and the book was finished and published before any one else could answer Burke."
