You may not be studying this in your seminars, but there will be a lecture on this author,and her work is recommended for a fuller understanding of the Revolutionary context ofRomanticism, and the place of women's writing in the period. The set text for lectures andseminars will be Mary and the Wrongs of Woman and the recommended edition is the onepublished by Oxford World's Classics, 2009, ed. Gary Kelly. The Penguin and Nortoneditions are also reliable. Also worth consulting are Wollstonecraft's other writings such asA Vindication of the Rights of Woman (either the Penguin or Norton editions arerecommended), her Collected Letters or her Letters written during a short residence inSweden, Norway and Denmark. The memoirs written by her husband, William Godwin, area good starting point for understanding her biography, Memoirs of the author of AVindication of the Rights of Woman. As far as modern biographies are concerned, ClaireTomalin's The life and death of Mary Wollstonecraft is a good lively read, and Janet Todd's Mary Wollstonecraft: a Revolutionary Life also gives useful background and criticalinformation.
