Wollstonecraft is a stirring writer, especially in the polemical Vindication of the Rights of Men, but her reasoning isn't always as rigorous as one might hope. Or perhaps it's disingenuous? One does get the feeling that she is holding back in a lot of places, for fear that her ideas are too radical for her readership. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

This volume brings together the major political writings of Mary Wollstonecraft in the order in which they appeared in the revolutionary 1790s. It traces her passionate and indignant response to the excitement of the early days of the French Revolution and then her uneasiness at its laterbloody phase. It reveals her developing understanding of women's involvement in the political and social life of the nation and her growing awareness of the relationship between politics and economics and between political institutions and the individual.In personal terms, the works show her struggling with a belief in the perfectibility of human nature through rational education, a doctrine that became weaker under the onslaught of her own miserable experience and the revolutionary massacres.Janet Todd's introduction illuminates the progress of Wollstonecraft's thought, showing that a reading of all three works allows her to emerge as a more substantial political writer than a study of The Rights of Woman alone can reveal.
