Join us as we talk about the first orn in 1759 in London, England, Wollstonecraft grew up in a financially unstable family.

Mary Wollstonecraft. Educazione, cittadinanza, matrimonio - Serena Vantin
Dopo esserci occupati di Amelia Podetti, torniamo in Europa, ma facciamo un salto indietro nel tempo e, arrivando alla seconda metà del Settecento, ci concentriamo su quella che può dirsi un’autentica icona femminista nell’ambito della cultura politica anglofona. La tredicesima video-lezione di "Donne e Pensiero Politico" è infatti dedicata a Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797), autrice di "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman" (1792), vero e proprio capolavoro del pensiero politico al femminile. Passionale al punto di esser definita la "Werther al femminile", ma anche una "iena in gonnella" e una "sgualdrina svergognata", Mary Wollstonecraft denunciò con forza l’esclusione delle donne dal...

Ep. 143 - Mary Wollstonecraft
Who is Mary Wollstonecraft and how did she influence our culture? Could one of the most influential feminist be a Christian? She was a British writer, philosopher, and advocate of women's rights in the 1700's! Today Wollstonecraft is regarded as one of the founding feminist philosophers, and feminists often cite both her life and her works as important influences. Peter and Beau take a look into her writing and how it relates to the Biblical teaching of male/female roles. Also they discuss how many of today's feminist forget to mention Mary's foundational worldview in Biblical truth. Is the consequence...

A radical idea! We salute its author by walking the streets she knew, hearing stories of the life of Mary Wollstonecraft in the smoky capital and its surrounding fresh-air villages (including Newington Green, where Maggi Hambling’s statue drew international attention in 2020). She lived and wrote in a circle of liberals and radicals, and like some later nearby writers, she too had an...

#19 Mary Wollstonecraft
Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797) är feministpionjären som framhöll "manlighet" som ett eftersträvansvärt ideal för kvinnor. Hon är upplysningsfilosofen som försvarade Franska revolutionen men kritiserade upplysningstänkarnas ojämställda syn på frihet. Ändå överskuggades länge Wollstonecrafts banbrytande tänkande av hennes livshistoria. Vilka var hennes mest revolutionerande idéer? Vilken betydelse hade vistelsen i Paris mitt under revolutionsåren för hennes utveckling som politisk tänkare? Och varför gick hennes livs sista resa till just Sverige? Gäster i studion är Elisabeth Mansén, professor i idéhistoria vid Stockholms universitet, och Lena Halldenius, docent i praktis...

Shelley's Ghost: Reshaping the Image of a Literary Family
Mary Wollstonecraft Three notes to William Godwin
Part of the Shelley's Ghost Exhibition. Even after their marriage Godwin and Wollstonecraft preferred to live independently during the day, and communicate by correspondence. They regularly exchanged anything from long, carefully composed letters to short notes dashed off on scraps of paper. Shown here are Mary's last three notes to Godwin, written while she was waiting impatiently for the delivery of her child ('the animal'), and seeking reassurance from the midwife, Mrs Blenkinsop. In her final note, Mary Wollstonecraft half-quotes her mother's last words; 'Have a little patience, and all will be over'. Her own daughter, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin (later...
