A Vindication of the Rights of Woman by Mary Wollstonecraft
Arguably the most original book of the eighteenth century, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman is a pioneering feminist work.
Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797) first achieved fame for her A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), in which she extended the radical idea of the "rights of man" to women and laid the groundwork for modern feminism. Deidre Shauna Lynch (Ph.D. Stanford), The Romantic Period, is Ernest Bernbaum Professor of Literature and Professor of English at Harvard University. Her books include Loving Literature: A Cultural History, the prize-winning The Economy of Character, and (as co-editor) Janeites: Austen’s Disciples and Devotees and Cultural Institutions of the Novel. She has edited Jane Austen's Mansfield Park and Persuasion and the Norton Critical Edition of Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. She is the recipient of fellowships from the National Humanities Center and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation and has won multiple teaching awards.
