BRINGING HOME THE EXOTIC: Mary Wollstonecraft
Letters Written During a Short Residence

in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark

The Library's early book buyers acquired the work of only one 18th-century female traveler: the pioneering author and human rights advocate Mary Wollstonecraft. Although a minor work, her Letters Written During a Short Residence is the hinge in a central chapter of her personal life, as well as a good index of the radical turn of her mind. By the summer of 1795, when Wollstonecraft visited Scandinavia, she was already notorious for the views expressed in Thoughts on the Education of Daughters A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), and the novel Mary (1788). She had fled England once before, following the humiliating dissolution of her romance with the painter Henry Fuseli. She arrived in France just as the Reign of Terror broke out, only to meet a new and even more problematic lover, American adventurer Gilbert Imlay. Their affair inspired her new book, An Historical and Moral View of the French Revolution , and produced a daughter named Fanny. Although Wollstonecraft may have considered their relationship a marriage, Imlay clearly did not, and in 1794 he left France and his family behind. Falling into depression, Wollstonecraft wrote him many obsessive letters and finally returned to London, only to find him with another woman. Imlay narrowly prevented her committing suicide. In a last-ditch bid for his affections, Wollstonecraft undertook to intercede for him with some business partners in Scandinavia, taking only the infant Fanny and a maid.

    Mary Wollstonecraft
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search John Opie Mary Wollstonecraft (c. 1797) Mary Wollstonecraft (pronounced /ˈwʊlstən.krɑːft/ ; 27 April 1759 – 10 September 1797) was an eighteenth-century British writer, philosopher , and advocate of women's rights . During her brief career, she wrote novels, treatises, a travel narrative , a history of the French Revolution , a conduct book , and a children's book. Wollstonecraft is best known for A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), in which she argues that women are not naturally inferior to men, but appear to be only because they lack education. She suggests that both men and women should be treated as rational beings and imagines a social order founded on reason. Until the late 20th century, Wollstonecraft's life, which encompassed several unconventional personal relationships, received more attention than her writing. After two ill-fated affairs, with Henry Fuseli and Gilbert Imlay (by whom she had a daughter, Fanny Imlay ), Wollstonecraft married the philosopher

    Web www.custom-essay.net Author prior to 1790 only of a conventional work in the conduct book genre and a semi-confessional novel, Wollstonecraft's practice as a reviewer for the Analytical Review prepared her entry into the male arena of political debate with A Vindication of the Rights of Men (1790), one of the earliest replies to Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France (1790). This polemical essay , largely a personal attack on Burke despite its claim to offer a reasoned critique (and thus succumbing to the same emotionalism and rhetorical excess it condemns in his text), is of interest mainly in so far as it anticipates the sociopolitical analysis of the more famous A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792) that followed. Addressing herself to middle-class women as those most susceptible to reformation, Wollstonecraft sets out in the

    Mary Wollstonecraft , the daughter of a handkerchief weaver, was born in Spitalfields, London in 1759. The family moved a great deal during Mary's childhood and she lived for periods at Epping, Barking, Beverley, Hoxton, Walworth and Laugharne in Wales. In 1784 Mary Wollstonecraft opened a school in Newington Green, a small village close to Hackney, with her sister Eliza and a friend, Fanny Blood. Soon after arriving in Newington Green, Mary made friends with Richard Price , a minister at the local Dissenting Chapel. Price and his friend, Joseph Priestly , were the leaders of a group of men known as Rational Dissenters. Price had written several books including the v ery influential Review of the Principal Questions of Morals (1758) where he argued that individual conscience and reason should be used when making moral choices. Price also rejected the traditional Christian ideas of original sin and eternal punishment. As a result of these religious views, some Anglicans accused Rational Dissenters of being atheists.

    The Anglo-Irish feminist, intellectual and writer, Mary Wollstonecraft, was born in London, the second of six children. Her father, Edward John Wollstonecraft, was a family despot who bullied his wife, Elizabeth Dixon, into a state of wearied servitude. He spent a fortune which he had inherited in various unsuccessful ventures at farming which took the family to six different locales throughout Britain by 1780, the year Mary's mother died. At the age of nineteen Mary went out to earn her own livelihood. In 1783, she helped her sister Eliza escape a miserable marriage by hiding her from a brutal husband until a legal separation was arranged. The two sisters established a school at Newington Green, an experience from which Mary drew to write Thoughts on the Education of Daughters: With Reflections on Female Conduct, in the More Important Duties of Life (1787). Mary became the governess in the family of Lord Kingsborough, living most of the time in Ireland. Upon her dismissal in 1787, she settled in George Street, London, determined to take up a literary career. In 1788 she became translator and literary advisor to Joseph Johnson, the publisher of radical texts. In this capacity she became acquainted with and accepted among the most advanced circles of London intellectual and radical thought. When Johnson launched the
