Thoughts on the Education of Daughters - Wollstonecraft Mary

A feminist reflection on female conduct, \'Thoughts on the Education of Daughters\' offers advice on moral and intellect for young women and girls. First published by the British feminist Mary Wollstonecraft in 1787, the self-help title invites readers today to peek behind the curtain at respectable – and what was considered then to be progressive – female behaviour. From child-rearing instructions to analytical thinking, Wollstonecraft adapted old genres to appeal to a new middle-class ethos, arguing that social and political life would greatly improve if women acquired valuable skills. Considered today the founding thoughts for Wollstonecraft\'s later work \'A Vindication of the Rights of Women,\' \'Thoughts\' is a must-read for fans of Helena Bonham Carter and Carey Mulligan in Netflix\'s acclaimed \'Suffragette\' film.
