Political Writings: A Vindication of the Rights of Men, a Vindication of the Rights of Woman, an Historical and Moral View of the French Revolution (World's Classics) - Softcover
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 her uneasiness at its later bloody 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.

Review:
... this edition does away with the idea of M. W. as Tom Paine in Skirts. Her mind is deepter and richer than his; her transmutation of the turmoil of her experiences during the revolutionary period in France is remarkable. (The Observer)
