Mary Wollstonecraft was an extraordinary individual, yet her
literary life exemplifies how many women of that time adopted print
culture to bring about change. This study argues that protestant
society had traditionally sanctioned women's role in spreading
literacy, but this became politicized in the 1790s.
Wollstonecraft's literary vocation was shaped by the high
expectations of the power of print to educate and reform
individuals and society, in the radical circles of the Unitarian
publisher Joseph Johnson, and the Girondins in revolutionary Paris.
