- Binding: Paperback

Description:
First published in 1792, "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman" was received with a mixture of vociferous outrage (Wollstonecraft's detractors called her "a hyena in petticoats") and ardent enthusiasm. In what is the first major work of feminism, Mary Wollstonecraft dares to apply the egalitarian principles of her day to women. The result is an argument for sexual emancipation -- in short, a women's declaration of independence.
Expand description
In a lively and well-reasoned introduction, columnist Katha Pollitt shows how "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman" speaks as much to women of the twenty-first century as it did to Wollstonecraft's contemporaries.
