One of the earliest contributions to feminist philosophy, Wollstonecraft's powerful treatise on the value of women in society tackles many of the patriarchal attitudes prevalent in the 18th century. In addition to championing the notion that women enjoy all the same fundamental rights as men, Wollstonecraft argues that men benefit from treating their wives as companions rather than commodities. Touching upon many themes in women's education, A Vindications of the Rights of Woman remains a bold and powerful read.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\nABOUT THE AUTHOR: Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797) was born in London in 1759. As part of a large family she had six siblings. Due to poverty and a violent father, Mary left home to become a lady's companion. Her mother's ill health brought her back home where she nursed her mother until she died. Mary then moved in with her friend Frances Blood. \r\nLater Frances, Mary and her sisters opened a school together. But when Frances got married and moved to Portugal to aid her health, Mary followed her to help nurse her friend. Sadly Frances died and this loss inspired Mary to write her first novel, Mary: A Fiction. \r\nMary returned to the UK and found a job as a governess. After a year Mary left to follow her ambition to be an author. Moving to London she worked as a translator to pay the bills while she wrote. After a failed love affair with Henry Fuseli, Mary moved to France where the writing of Vindication of the Rights of Men made her famous overnight.\r\nMary married William Godwin in 1797 and died giving birth to their daughter, Mary.\n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 220\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 17, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuiz Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vindication of the Rights of Woman\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upper Grades, 9-12\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15.7\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47444251181234,"sku":"9781291458893","price":20.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/0bb00b61c2760c72fdcfd272896b1acf.webp?v=1778701560","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/vindication-of-the-rights-of-women-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
