Más información sobre el libro

Set against the backdrop of the American and French Revolutions, this manifesto passionately advocates for women's rights and education. Wollstonecraft uses powerful analogies to highlight the subjugation of women, comparing their societal roles to those of slaves and soldiers. She argues for the elimination of restrictive prejudices and emphasizes that women should be recognized for their professions rather than their relationships. This groundbreaking work, met with both acclaim and controversy, remains a cornerstone of feminist philosophy and thought.
