Excellent- More about Mary Wollstonecraft: Cosmopolitan
This book argues that Wollstonecraft espouses a cosmopolitan ethic that subordinates local and national allegiances to philanthropy, or love of humankind, and represents philanthropy and cultural authenticity as the means to resist tyranny and imperialism.
Format: Hardback
Length: 288 pages
Publication date: 31 July 2022
Publisher: Edinburgh University Press
This book delves into the profound transformation of material from a diverse range of European writers and orators, including Rousseau, Mirabeau, Stephanie-Felicite de Genlis, Christian Gotthilf Salzmann, and Margareta de Cambon, as well as British sentimental philosophers and the radical theologian Richard Price. Through her extensive exploration, it emerges that Wollstonecraft advocates a cosmopolitan ethic that prioritizes philanthropic values and a profound love for humankind above local and national allegiances. In a time of global conflict, burgeoning capitalism, and colonial enterprise, she sees philanthropy and cultural authenticity as powerful tools to resist tyranny and imperialism in all their manifestations. Moreover, she believes that these values can pave the way toward achieving global justice and fostering a more harmonious and equitable world.
