Reseña del libro "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (Esprios Classics): With Strictures On Political And Moral Subjects"
A Vindication of the Rights of Woman: with Strictures on Political and Moral Subjects (1792), written by the 18th-century British proto-feminist Mary Wollstonecraft, is one of the earliest works of feminist philosophy. In it, Wollstonecraft responds to those educational and political theorists of the 18th century who believed that women should not receive a rational education. She argues that women's education ought to match their position in society, and that they are essential to the nation because they raise its children and could act as respected "companions" to their husbands. Wollstonecraft maintains that women are human beings deserving of the same fundamental rights as men, and that treating them as mere ornaments or property for men undermines the moral foundations of society.
Mary Shelley (1797-1851) fue una escritora, dramaturga, ensayista y biógrafa británica. Es una de las escritoras más importantes e influyentes de las letras británicas del siglo XIX. Su poderosa imaginación y su inagotable sed de concimiento le llevaron a concebir Frankenstein, una de las novelas más leídas y estudiadas desde su publicación. Además escribió otras novelas, como El último hombre o Perkin Warbeck, y un buen número de relatos.
