Mary Wollstonecraft was one of the greatest philosophers and writers of the Eighteenth century. During her brief career, she wrote novels, treatises, a travel narrative, a history of the French Revolution, a conduct book, and a children's book. Her most celebrated and widely-read work is A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. This Guidebook introduces: Wollstonecraft's life and the background to A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, the ideas and text of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman and Wollstonecraft's enduring influence in philosophy and our contemporary intellectual life. It is ideal for anyone coming to Wollstonecraft's classic text for the first time and anyone interested in the origins of feminist thought -- publisher
