Summary Annotation This revolutionary work from the eighteenth century is one of the first tracts of feminist philosophyMary Wollstonecraft wrote A Vindication of the Rights of Woman in opposition to the gender norms of the eighteenth century. In this seminal text, Wollstonecraft argues that women should receive a comprehensive education in order to benefit society. Women and men, she argues, are moral equals in the eyes of God, and women, at the time that Wollstonecraft was writing, occupied an inferior station because they were trained to serve only men rather than civilization as a whole.Written in response to Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord's assertion that women ought only to receive a domestic education and should be confined to the home, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman was a remarkably forward-thinking political text.This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
