Romantic Outlaws
Author: Charlotte Gordon
Publisher: Random House Trade Paperbacks
ISBN: 0812980476
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 674
Book Description
NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD WINNER • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE SEATTLE TIMES This groundbreaking dual biography brings to life a pioneering English feminist and the daughter she never knew. Mary Wollstonecraft and Mary Shelley have each been the subject of numerous biographies, yet no one has ever examined their lives in one book—until now. In Romantic Outlaws, Charlotte Gordon reunites the trailblazing author who wrote A Vindication of the Rights of Woman and the Romantic visionary who gave the world Frankenstein—two courageous women who should have shared their lives, but instead shared a powerful literary and feminist legacy. In 1797, less than two weeks after giving birth to her second daughter, Mary Wollstonecraft died, and a remarkable life spent pushing against the boundaries of society’s expectations for women came to an end. But another was just beginning. Wollstonecraft’s daughter Mary was to follow a similarly audacious path. Both women had passionate relationships with several men, bore children out of wedlock, and chose to live in exile outside their native country. Each in her own time fought against the injustices women faced and wrote books that changed literary history. The private lives of both Marys were nothing less than the stuff of great Romantic drama, providing fabulous material for Charlotte Gordon, an accomplished historian and a gifted storyteller. Taking readers on a vivid journey across revolutionary France and Victorian England, she seamlessly interweaves the lives of her two protagonists in alternating chapters, creating a book that reads like a richly textured historical novel. Gordon also paints unforgettable portraits of the men in their lives, including the mercurial genius Percy Shelley, the unbridled libertine Lord Byron, and the brilliant radical William Godwin. “Brave, passionate, and visionary, they broke almost every rule there was to break,” Gordon writes of Wollstonecraft and Shelley. A truly revelatory biography, Romantic Outlaws reveals the defiant, creative lives of this daring mother-daughter pair who refused to be confined by the rigid conventions of their era. Praise for Romantic Outlaws “[An] impassioned dual biography . . . Gordon, alternating between the two chapter by chapter, binds their lives into a fascinating whole. She shows, in vivid detail, how mother influenced daughter, and how the daughter’s struggles mirrored the mother’s.”—The Boston Globe

The Life and Letters of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley Volume II
Author: Mary Shelley
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781540438072
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
The second volume of Shelley's letters offer further insight into her life, talents and inspirations as she approached maturity as an artist and individual. It is through her voluminous letters and correspondences that we gain an intimate insight into Shelley's mental processes, opinions and outlook on life. Attempts were made by Shelley's son to censor and tone down her stark attitudes, so that she may be better accepted into the Victorian culture which fostered and grew her reputation. These letters are however produced without abridgment, allowing the reader a glimpse into the thoughts of one of the era's finest literary women. Revered as the author of the timeless horror novel Frankenstein, Mary Shelley would privately express frustrations at this single book eclipsing her other efforts in both fiction and non-fiction. She also possessed political views which she made pains to express via her written works, and was dismayed that most leading critics of the day either ignored or simply missed these references in her fiction. Although the odds were stacked against Mary Shelley from her earliest years simply because of her gender - a fact which she was all too aware - her letters demonstrate a determination and strength of spirit. Her correspondences with Percy in particular evidence a soul capable of passions great and bold, while several of her views on emancipation and individual liberty were startlingly ahead of their time. Biographical annotations by Florence Ashton Marshall are situated between many of the letters within this book. These explain what events transpired between the individual letters, letting the reader better follow what Shelley alludes and refers to. Thus, this collection of Shelley's letters is immensely readable, absorbing and insightful.
