«A Vindication of the Rights of Woman» is Mary Wollstonecraft's feminist essay, published by Random House UK in paperback (112 pages, in English).
Pioneering work written when the term «feminism» did not yet exist: abridged edition of the 1792 essay in which Wollstonecraft defends women's education and their greater participation in society. Her rationalist argument was the seed of the movement for women's rights. With an introduction by Zoe Williams.
Part of the Vintage Feminism Short Editions collection in the Vintage Classics catalogue, alongside other fundamental texts of feminist thought.
Suitable for readers new to feminist thought and for those interested in political philosophy and women's rights.
Mary Wollstonecraft was an English writer and philosopher best known for her advocacy of women's rights. Until the late twentieth century, Wollstonecraft's life, which encompassed several unconventional personal relationships, received more attention than her writing. Wollstonecraft is regarded as one of the founding feminist philosophers, and feminists often cite both her life and her works as important influences.
