Mary Shelley Did I request thee, Maker, from my clay To mould me man? Did I solicit thee From darkness to promote me? John Milton, Paradise Lost Like one who, on a lonely road, Doth walk in fear and dread, And, having once turned round, walks on, And turns no more his head; Because he knows a frightful fiend Doth close behind him tread. Samuel Taylor Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner I saw the hideous phantasm of a man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life, and stir with an uneasy, half-vital motion. Mary Shelley We will each write a ghost story. Lord Byron So now my summer task is ended, Mary, And I return to thee, my own heart's home; As to his Queen some Victor Knight of Faery, Earning bright spoils for her enchanted dome ... Percy Bysshe Shelley There are two creatures of horror that are known to everyone - Dracula and Frankenstein - though in popular misconception neither bear much resemblance to their original creations. Both Bram Stoker's Dracula and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein have led to a whole genre of horror movies, though none bear much resemblance either to the original characters or to the novels in which they first appear.

She argued that women could live happy, creative lives if they had better educational opportunities. She based her book on the democratic principles of the French Revolution (1789-1799) and on her own experiences. Wollstonecraft was born in London. She educated herself by studying books at home.

Mary Wollstonecraft Mary Wollstonecraft , a late eighteenth century feminist psychologist, died at thirty-eight years of age after giving birth to a famous daughter. Her social activism for the equality of women influenced her psychological studies. Wollstonecraft developed a very sophisticated view of the relationship between emotion and reason. During the eighteenth century the psychological process of emotion was seen as a disturbance and weakness of the human mind. Mary Wollstonecraft proposed that emotions could provide a point of view on a situation that supplemented the point of view given to us by reason alone. She conceded to the notion that women were more influenced by emotions than men but that this sensibility did not vindicate keeping them uneducated or unequal. In 1792 she wrote Vindication of the Rights of Women, advocating equality of the sexes. She died in London, the city of her birth in 1797. Her daughter, Mary Shelley, enhanced the literary world by writing Frankenstein. Bibliography Benjafield, John G., (1996)

Works Bio-Bibliographical Note Acknowledgements Usage Mary Wollstonecraft's Works A Vindication of the Rights of Woman A Bio-bibliographical note about Mary Wollstonecraft "Reviled in her day as a 'hyena in petticoats', Mary Wollstonecraft is now recognized as one of the mothers of British and American feminism. In her most famous work, Vindication of the Rights of Woman , which was published in 1792 in the immediate aftermath of the French Revolution, Wollstonecraft applies radical principles of liberty and equality to sexual politics. Rights of Woman is a devastating critique of the 'false system of education' which she argues forced the middle-class women of her time to live within a stifling ideal of femininity: 'Taught from infancy that beauty is women's sceptre, the mind shapes itself to the body, and roaming round its gilt cage seeks only to adore its prison'. Instead, Wollenstonecraft dares to address women as 'rational creatures', and she urges them to aspire to a wider human ideal which combines feeling with reason and the right to independence. "Wollstonecraft's difficult, brave and tragically short life was itself a continual quest for financial, intellectual and sexual independence. Determined to make her own living, she initially endured the orthodox female occupations of paid companion and governess, but by the time she published

Mary Wollstonecraft Wollstonecraft used the rationalist and egalitarian ideas of late eighteenth-century radical liberalism to attack the subjugation of women and to display its roots in the social construction of gender. Her political philosophy draws on Rousseau's philosophical anthropology, rational religion, and an original moral psychology which integrates reason and feeling in the production of virtue. Relations between men and women are corrupted by artificial gender distinctions, just as political relations are corrupted by artificial distinctions of rank, wealth and power. Conventional, artificial morality distinguishes between male and female virtue; true virtue is gender-neutral, consists in the imitation of God, and depends on the unimpeded development of natural faculties common to both sexes, including both reason and passion. Political justice and private virtue are interdependent: neither can advance without an advance in the other. See also: Feminism Further reading Sapiro, V.

Although Mary Shelley never knew her mother who died giving birth to her, the concerns of the daughter in Matilda reflect upon the convictions of the mother in Mary and Maria - that women have the right to equality of education and opportunity, to fair treatment in marriage and under the law, and, most controversially, that women have a duty to themselves to reject the trappings and false allure of traditional definitions of femininity and embrace a richer, wider notion of womanhood.

Following is an excerpt from this early manifesto in defense of the liberty of the weaker sex. Consider...whether, when men contend for their freedom, and to be allowed to judge for themselves respecting their own happiness, it be not inconsistent and unjust to subjugate women, even though you firmly believe that you are acting in the manner best calculated to promote their happiness? Who made man the exclusive judge, if woman partake with him the gift of reason?... Let there be then no coercion established in society, and the common law of gravity prevailing, the sexes will fall into their proper places. And, now that more equitable laws are forming your citizens, marriage may become more sacred: your young men may choose wives from motives of affection, and your maidens allow love to root out vanity....
