Memoirs Of Mary Wollstonecraft (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163149164)

Memoirs of Mary Wollstonecraft is a biographical work written by William Godwin about his late wife, Mary Wollstonecraft. Wollstonecraft was a prominent feminist writer and philosopher in the late 18th century who advocated for women's rights and education. She is best known for her book A Vindication of the Rights of Woman. The memoirs were written shortly after Wollstonecraft's death in 1797 and were intended to serve as a tribute to her life and work. Godwin provides a detailed account of Wollstonecraft's childhood, education, and career as a writer. He also discusses her personal life, including her relationships with men and her marriage to Godwin. The memoirs are notable for their frank and honest portrayal of Wollstonecraft's life, including her struggles with depression and her unconventional views on marriage and sexuality. The book provides a unique insight into the life of one of the most important feminist thinkers of the 18th century and is considered a classic of feminist literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
