Interest in the contribution made by women to the history of
philosophy is burgeoning. Intense research is underway to recover
their works which have been lost or overlooked. At the forefront of
this revival is Mary Wollstonecraft. While she has long been
studied by feminists, and later discovered by political scientists,
philosophers themselves have only recently begun to recognise the
value of her work for their discipline. This volume brings together
new essays from leading scholars, which explore Wollstonecraft's
range as a moral and political philosopher of note, both taking a
historical perspective and applying her thinking to current
academic debates. Subjects include Wollstonecraft's ideas on love
and respect, friendship and marriage, motherhood, property in the
person, and virtue and the emotions, as well as the application her
thought has for current thinking on relational autonomy, and animal
and children's rights. A major theme within the book places her
within the republican tradition of political theory and analyses
the contribution she makes to its conceptual resources.
