The writings of republican historian and political pamphleteer
Catharine Macaulay (1731-91) played a central role in debates about
political reform in the Age of Enlightenment and Revolution. A
critical reader of Hume's bestselling History of England, she broke
new ground in historiography by defending the regicide of Charles I
and became an inspiration for many luminaries of the American and
French revolutions. While her historical and political works
engaged with thinkers from Hobbes and Locke to Bolingbroke and
Burke, she also wrote about religion, philosophy, education and
animal rights. Influencing Wollstonecraft and proto-feminism, she
argued that there were no moral differences between men and women
and that boys and girls should receive the same education. This
book is the first scholarly edition of Catharine Macaulay's
published writings and includes all her known pamphlets along with
extensive selections from her longer historical and political
works.
