Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797), English writer and passionate advocate of educational and social equality for women.
The daughter of a farmer, Wollstonecraft taught school and worked as a governess, experiences that inspired her views in Thoughts on the Education of Daughters (1787). In 1788 she began working as a translator for the London publisher James Johnson, who published several of her works, including the novel Mary: A Fiction (1788). Her mature work on woman’s place in society is A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), which calls for women and men to be educated equally.
In 1792 Wollstonecraft left England to observe the French Revolution in Paris.Wollstonecraft returned to London to work again for Johnson and joined the influential radical group that gathered at his home and that included William Godwin, Thomas Paine, Thomas Holcroft, William Blake, and, after 1793, William Wordsworth. In 1796 she began a liaison with Godwin, and on March 29, 1797, Mary being pregnant, they were married. The marriage was happy but brief; Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin died 11 days after the birth of her second daughter, Mary (Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein).
A Vindication of the Rights of Woman is one of the trailblazing works of feminism. Published in 1792, Wollstonecraft’s work argued that the educational system of her time deliberately trained women to be frivolous and incapable. She posited that an educational system that allowed girls the same advantages as boys would result in women who would be not only exceptional wives and mothers but also capable workers in many professions. Other early feminists had made similar pleas for improved education for women, but Wollstonecraft’s work was unique in suggesting that the betterment of women’s status be effected through such political change as the radical reform of national educational systems. Such change, she concluded, would benefit all society.

評分昨天晚上和成都的叶老师聊天,在散聊的过程中,我们似乎把话题无意推向了女权的浅薄层面。 准确地说,是我自然而然再次思考到了那里。 她说,女人都是情绪化的动物。又提到人性。 这几个词联系起来是人类的一半历史:“人性”、“女人”、“情绪”、“动物”。不过说句实话...

評分有其时代局限性,但其中提出的最主要的问题,比如女性对(自身)美貌的追求,靠撒娇卖痴、表现儿童化而获取男性关注与追求,主流社会对男女特质、品德的区别要求和对待……等等,直到今天依旧是常态,或者说从男权社会崛起至今,男权(主流)社会本身对女性的要求从未有过本质...
戳中瞭很多現實問題,然而還是教育女性要被enlighten這樣纔能拴住男人教好小孩。#個人覺得這樣的女性男人應該不喜歡吧哈哈哈哈
