Condition: New
Arguably the most original book of the eighteenth century, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman is a pioneering feminist work. Written during a time of great political turmoil, social anxiety, and against the backdrop of the French Revolution, Wollstonecrafts argument continues to challenge and inspire. This revised and expanded Third Edition is again based on the 1792 second-edition text and is accompanied by revised and expanded explanatory annotations.Backgrounds and Contexts is also significantly expanded and contains twenty-four works organized thematically into these groupings: Legacies of English Radicalism, Education, Wollstonecrafts Revolutionary Moment, and The Wollstonecraft Debate. Opinions on a variety of reforms that may be compared and contrasted with Wollstonecrafts include those by John Milton, John Locke, Mary Astell, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Hannah More, Richard Price, Edmund Burke, Maria Edgeworth, and William Godwin, among others.Criticism includes six seminal essays on A Vindication of the Rights of Woman by Elissa S. Guralnick, Mitzi Myers, Cora Kaplan, Mary Poovey, Claudia L. Johnson, and Barbara Taylor.A Chronology of Wollstonecrafts life and work and a Selected Bibliography are also included.
