What is Mary Wollstonecraft (Twayne's English Authors Series) about?

The Mary Wollstonecraft revival began slowly. The first good modern biography by Ralph Wardle caused little stir when it appeared in the early 1950s. Before 1960 Wollstonecraft would have been remembered ( if at all) as vaguely connected with the poet Shelley, to whom her daughter Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin was married; even today she is so often identified with her daughter that many people think the mother wrote Frankenstein. But in the 1960s, a decade in which the women's liberation movement developed national prominence, contemporary scholars recuperated women writers as well as pioneer theorists of feminism, and so rediscovered Wollstonecraft and her momentous document, A vindication of the Rights of woman ( 1792). A new edition of this work was issued in the late 1960s. Four major Wollstonecraft biographies by Margaret George, Eleanor Flexner, Claire Tomalin, and En1ily Sunstein followed. Good, reasonably priced editions of her individual writings, a bibliography of her works, as well as an anthology and a collected edition of her letters have already appeared.
