Thoughts On The Education Of Daughters: With Reflections On Female Conduct In The More Important Duties Of Life (1787) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781166294410)

""Thoughts on the Education of Daughters"" is a book written by Mary Wollstonecraft in 1787. The book is a reflection on the education of young girls and the importance of female conduct in the more important duties of life. Wollstonecraft argues that women should receive the same education as men and that their intellectual abilities should not be underestimated. She also discusses the importance of cultivating virtues such as modesty, prudence, and self-control in young women. The book is divided into several chapters, each addressing a different aspect of female education and conduct. Wollstonecraft's ideas were considered radical at the time of publication, but her work has since become an important text in the history of feminism and women's education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
