Mary Wollstonecraft was a firebrand thinker of the Enlightenment - proposing radical ideas about the fundamental rights of women. And her life was just as groundbreaking as her work, from having a front row seat at the French Revolution and embarking on a treasure hunt for stolen silver along the Norwegian coast, to courting scandal by giving birth outside of wedlock. In this Life of the Week podcast episode, author Bee Rowlatt tells Ellie Cawthorne more about Wollstonecraft's life and legacy.
Bee Rowlatt is the author of In Search of Mary: The Mother of All Journeys (Alma Books, 2015)
