The Vindications: The Rights of Men and The Rights of Woman Mary Wollstonecraft
It is not widely known that the germ of Wollstonecraft's great work came out of an earlier and much shorter vindication-A Vindication of the Rights of Men (1790), written in the context of the issues raised by the French Revolution. This edition, which follows the model of other Broadview Editions in including a range of materials that help the reader to see the work in the context of its era out of which it emerged, is arranged chronologically, opening with Wollstonecraft's other vindication. It also includes a wide range of other documents in appendices, as well as a comprehensive and authoritative introduction, chronology, and full index.
