In her 1788 novel, British author Mary Wollstonecraft tells the story of a young woman, Mary, who is forced to marry due to family pressure. But instead of submitting to the expectations of her surroundings, Mary chooses her own path: traveling, helping the needy, philosophical reflections. In telling the story of her heroine, Wollstonecraft raises a wide range of issues: gender roles and stereotypes, societal pressure, and a woman's right to realize her own aspirations and desires.
