Mary Wollstonecraft The divine right of husbands, like the divine right of kings, may, it is hoped, in this enlightened age, be contested without danger. Mary Wollstonecraft Probably Mary, and certainly Godwin, when he revealed her life to the public, misjudged the price she would pay for her unconventionality. But, although she was in many ways foiled by her own flaws, and even more by the shifts of cultural fashion, she tried - almost uniquely for the times - to be true to her sense of common female needs: for education and for legal and political significance, as well as for sex, affection and esteem. Janet Todd Feminist Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797) was a member of a group of radical intellectuals called the English Jacobins. Her book A Vindication of the Rights of Women (1792) argued equal educational opportunities for women. She married the radical activist and philosopher William Godwin in 1797 and died giving birth to a daughter, Mary (later Mary Shelley). Mary Wollstonecraft was born near London, of Irish descent. Owing to her father's thriftlessness, she had to earn her living by teaching (1778–88). With her sisters she ran a school for two years, then served for a year as a governess in Ireland and then worked for Johnson, the publisher, as reader and translator. While she was working for Johnson she met political philosopher Thomas Paine, chemist Joseph Priestley (1733–1804), and the Swiss-born Romantic artist (John) Henry Fuseli (1741–1825).

    Extractions: Mary Wollstonecraft , a product of the Enlightenment, Romanticism , and the American and French Revolutions, was born in the 1750's. She was the child of a marginal gentry farmer and an unloving mother. She began her protests of thecondition of women at an early age by protecting her mother from her father's abuse and resenting her brother's favored position. Mary was a passionate, generous, and demanding girl. Shedecided at an early age to be independent. This may not seem that shocking in today's society, but in her time period gentry women did notwork outside the home regardless of how poor they were. At the age of nineteen she took a position as a paid companion. At twenty-one she declared that she would never marry. She had witnessed her father's tyranny over her mother and did not desire the same for herself. Marriage gave the husband legal ownership of his wife, her property, and their children and a woman could not obtain a divorce. By being against marriage, she was far ahead of her time. The ultimate goal for women of the 1700's was a good marriage and children. Her first major act of social defiance was rescuing her sister, Eliza, from a miserable marriage even though Eliza had to leave her child behind. Mary realized that the only way to be truly free was to remain unmarried. Over the next seven years Mary worked as a governess. Unfortunately the work was frustrating for her because she was so intelligent and ambitious. Thus at the age of twenty-eight she wrote a semi-autobiographical novel

    Extractions: Revised : September 1, 2001 The word "feminist" is, I think, a twentieth century invention, but all of the basic ideas and beliefs of that point of view are much older. For example, feminist ideas are found expressed in all the writings of the French revolutionists. Also, the main subject of this first page, Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797), evolved into a "feminist" in the full, modern meaning of the word. She was also what is today called "liberated", both politically and sexually. You can read an account of those matters in Claire Tomalin's wonderfully detailed biography of Wollstonecraft [ Tomalin-MW The life and works of Mary Wollstonecraft's daughter, Mary Shelley, are also discussed in this first page. Special emphasis is placed on two of Shelley's novels and a short story. The interesting point is that Mary Shelley seemed to rebel, eventually, against her parents' and husband's radical views. That seems most apparent in her writings. I like both of the Marys, but my deepest respect is paid to Shelley and not just because of her good sense - Shelley was a thinker worthy of our consideration regardless of an individual reader's political views. On subsequent pages, I discuss

Kasvatuksen tehtävä on näin ollen säädellä niitä vaikutteita joita mieleen piirtyy. Locke tarkasteli itse kasvatuskysymyksiä teoksessa Some Thoughts Concerning Education, joka julkaistiin anonyymina vuonna 1693 (ja suomennettiin vuonna 1914). Ajatellen synnynnäisten ideoiden kritiikkiä on hiukan yllättävää että Locke kuitenkin pitää moraalia luonnollisena Jumalan luomana asiana. Tämä luonnollisuus ei kuitenkaan tarkoita että ihmisellä olisi synnynnäisiä moraalisia periaatteita, vaan hänellä on luonnollinen kyky oppia käyttämään järkeään moraalia edistävällä tavalla. Kasvattajan tehtävä ei ole iskostaa lapseen itse määritelmiään periaatteita, vaan tarjota ympäristö, jossa lapsi voi sopivien aistihavaintojen ja muiden virikkeiden avulla vapaasti kehittää omaa kykyään käyttää järkeä. Locken kasvatuskäsitys liittyy läheisesti siihen, että ihminen on hänen mukaansa lähtökohtaisesti vapaa olento.

    Extractions: 'The Reader' by Jean-Honore Fragonard The English authoress Mary Wollstonecraft was a forerunner of feminism. She advocated "respecting the rights of woman, and national education" with "the firm tone of humanity" in her book, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman . Mary dedicated her signature work to bringing the lack of equality to the attention of the Bishop of Autun. She was among the first women of her time to demand that her gender live in equality with the men. She argued forcefully to " strengthen the female mind by enlarging it." She pleaded for women to be allowed an education and predicted that " there will be an end to blind obedience; but, as blind obedience is ever sought for by those in power, tyrants and sensualists are in the right when they endeavor to keep women in the dark, because the former only want slaves, and the latter, a play-thing". 1792 was the year in which Mary wrote her most well-known book length essay. This was among the first works that gave birth to feminism. Born in London in 1759, Mary Wollstonecraft was self-educated. She first tried to support herself as a governess and then went on to work for the London publisher, James Johnson, in 1797. By this time, Mary had already written

Ella brilla, aunque parezca oscurecerse y los hombres crean que está apagada, pero se reanima de repente para brillar eternamente". Hija de un padre brutal, que despilfarraba el resto de una fortuna, comenzó a ganarse la vida a la edad de 17 años como señorita de compañía, institutriz, modista y maestra, al tiempo que comenzó a escribir y a destacar por su clara inteligencia. Vivió en Irlanda, Francia e Inglaterra y frecuentó círculos de pintores, escritores, filósofos y editores. Contraria al matrimonio, tuvo una hija, Fanny, con un escritor estadounidense y más tarde tuvo su segunda hija, Mary, con el filósofo y escritor Godwin, con quien poco antes se había casado en secreto.
