Mary Wollstonecraft Mary Wollstonecraft , a late eighteenth century feminist psychologist, died at thirty-eight years of age after giving birth to a famous daughter. Her social activism for the equality of women influenced her psychological studies. Wollstonecraft developed a very sophisticated view of the relationship between emotion and reason. During the eighteenth century the psychological process of emotion was seen as a disturbance and weakness of the human mind. Mary Wollstonecraft proposed that emotions could provide a point of view on a situation that supplemented the point of view given to us by reason alone. She conceded to the notion that women were more influenced by emotions than men but that this sensibility did not vindicate keeping them uneducated or unequal. In 1792 she wrote Vindication of the Rights of Women, advocating equality of the sexes. She died in London, the city of her birth in 1797. Her daughter, Mary Shelley, enhanced the literary world by writing Frankenstein. Bibliography Benjafield, John G., (1996)

Publication details Contents Editor Recommend this title to your library Mary and Maria by Mary Wollstonecraft Matilda by Mary Shelley The Pickering Women's Classics Edited by Janet Todd This book brings together three extraordinary novels by an extraordinary pair, Mary Wollstonecraft - radical, feminist and author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman - and Mary Shelley, her daughter, author of Frankenstein . Although Mary Shelley never knew her mother who died giving birth to her, the concerns of the daughter in Matilda reflect upon the convictions of the mother in Mary and Maria - that women have the right to equality of education and opportunity, to fair treatment in marriage and under the law, and, most controversially, that women have a duty to themselves to reject the trappings and false allure of traditional definitions of femininity and embrace a richer, wider notion of womanhood. Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797) is generally recognised as the mother of the feminist movement. She expressed her ideas in her first novel, Mary, a Fiction

PAID ADVERTISEMENTS Library Modern Documents John Patrick Michael Murphy : Mary Wollstonecraft (1999) Murphy's Law: Mary Wollstonecraft (1999) by John Patrick Michael Murphy Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797) started it allshe ignited the notion that women were the equals of men. She was a revolutionary for women, when they were chattels. In her day women were barred from universities, professions, the vote, owning property, and had only the rights of those the law classified as an idiot. There were no custody battles in divorce cases as the men won them all because women could not own property (children), and the probate courts placed the husband in control of the wife's inheritance. It was all so consistent with the Bible that one could only deduce these were godly laws. Besides, the courts were not so crowded when only half the population could sue, be sued, or enter into a contract. In her brief life she would attempt to change all that by becoming the grandmother of the movement to free her sex from the dogmas and traditions and laws grounded to "our barbaric past."

Famous Quotes By: Wollstonecraft, Mary 1759-1797 British Feminist Writer No man chooses evil because it is evil; he only mistakes it for happiness. Wollstonecraft, Mary Evil If the abstract rights of man will bear discussion and explanation, those of women, by a parity of reasoning, will not shrink from the same test: though a different opinion prevails in this country. Wollstonecraft, Mary Feminism Independence I have long considered as the grand blessing of life, the basis of every virtue; and independence I will ever secure by contracting my wants, though I were to live on a barren heath. Wollstonecraft, Mary Independence Children, I grant, should be innocent; but when the epithet is applied to men, or women, it is but a civil term for weakness. Wollstonecraft, Mary Innocence Women are told from their infancy, and taught by the example of their mothers, that a little knowledge of human weakness, justly termed cunning, softness of temper, outward obedience and a scrupulous attention to a puerile kind of propriety, will obtain for them the protection of man.

Her father is a heavy drinker and tyrannises her mother. As she witnesses and sometimes even tries to stop the abuse, it was perhaps inevitable that Mary would turn out to be one of the first feminists. At the age of 27, she writes her first article "Thoughts on the Education of Daughters" in 1786. It does not take long for people to recognise her for her remarkable writing skills. Besides writing original works, she also writes reviews and does translations. In earlier works, Mary Wollstonecraft writes about "the disabilities and sufferings of the English lower classes" . But in her most famous works, Mary focuses more on the oppression of women. This is the central theme of her most famous work A Vindication of the Rights of Woman . Never before were the sufferings and indignities of women so passionately described. In writing this work, Mary "had found the cause she was to pursue for the rest of her life."

KennisQuiz.nl Wollstonecraft, Mary Britse schrijfster en feministe De Britse schrijfster en feministe Mary Wollstonecraft werd in april 1759 in Hoxton geboren. Mary was het tweede kind uit een gezin van zeven kinderen van een waard. Het gezin verhuisde regelmatig. Als negentienjarige werd Mary gezelschapsdame van een oudere mevrouw in Bath. In 1779 richtte Mary Wollstonecraft met haar zusters een school op in Londen. Zij gaf tot 1786 les op deze school. In 1785 bezocht Mary Wollstonecraft haar vriendin Fanny Blood in Lissabon, om haar bij te staan tijdens de geboorte van haar kind. Bij terugkomst in Engeland, blijken haar zusters de school in financiële problemen te hebben gebracht door grote schulden te hebben gemaakt. Om deze schulden te kunnen aflossen aanvaardde Mary Wollstonecraft een baan als gouvernante in Ierland. Na een jaar werd ze als gouvernante ontslagen. Inmiddels waren haar eerste boeken verschenen en van de opbrengst hiervan kon ze een kleine woning in Londen betrekken. Via haar uitgever Joseph Johnson leerde ze de reeds getrouwde Zwitserse kunstenaar en schrijver Heinrich Füssli kennen. Er ontstond een romance.

Historic Humanist Series Mary Wollstonecraft April 1996 Mary Wollstonecraft is recognized as a pioneer in the struggle for recognition of the equality of women. Born April 27, 1759, she came into this world at a time when females were in chattel slavery. During her short life, 38 years, she wrote extensively concerning the enslavement of half of the human race. She promoted the idea that women are capable of more than marriage and motherhood, that they are entitled to the same opportunities as men. Her most famous book, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman was published in 1792, just 5-years before her untimely death. Mary's philosophy can be exemplified with this quotation: ";That being cannot be termed rational or virtuous, who obeys any authority, but reason." Much of her intellectual energy was directed toward gaining equal educational opportunities for females. Mary Wollstonecraft died March 29.1797, one month before what would have been her 38th birthday. Flo Winriter
