More from Mary Wollstonecraft
"It is a melancholy truth that among the higher classes, the only system of education adopted is calculated to make women more dependent and helpless."
"False notions of beauty and delicacy stop the growth of the mind, and instead of just principles, fill the imagination with romantic stories."
"No man chooses evil because it is evil; he only mistakes it for happiness, the good he seeks."
"A great many women and men, too, make a point of never thinking about a subject without having taken a side first."
"I am not a slave to the fashion of the day, nor to the prejudice of any age."
About Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797)
English writer and proto-feminist philosopher whose A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792) is the founding text of modern feminist theory. Closely associated with Thomas Paine (Rights of Man co-conspirator and revolutionary contemporary) and William Godwin (her husband and philosopher of anarchism). For an intellectual contrast, see Edmund Burke, Anglo-Irish conservative and parliamentarian — Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France (1790) was the explicit target of Wollstonecraft's first book — A Vindication of the Rights of Men (1790), written in the weeks after Burke's appeared. She extended the argument to women in her second Vindication two years later. Burke's tradition-and-prescription conservatism is the worldview Wollstonecraft's career was structured against.
