内容説明

This work explores Mary Wollstonecraft's 19th-century legacy in relation to three themes integral to her work: the nature of motherhood, religion and the empowerment of women, and women's contribution to the sciences of "man". The introduction provides a comparative framework for French and English women and situates each essay within current historical debates. Subjects include Woollstonecraft's problematic reputation and its gradual rehabilitation; the role of the aristocratic Victorian political hostess; the philanthropy of French Catholic women; Catholic feminism; and anthropology, and the contrast of Albertine Necker de Saussure to Rousseau's ideals.
