Mary Wollstonecraft traduttrice. Educazione, morale e pensiero radicale dalle pagine dell’Analytical Review alla Francia rivoluzionaria

This paper aims at presenting Wollstonecraft’s profile as a translator. Firstly, it will focus on her edited translations (Of the Importance of Religious Opinion. Translated from the French, 1788; Elements of Morality for the Use of Children With an Introductory Adress to Parents. Translated from the German, 1790; Young Grandison. A Series of Letters from Young Persons to Their Friends. Translated with Alterations and Improvements, 1790). Secondly, an overview of her broader tasks as reviewer and reporter will be offered. The analysis will stress the importance of these activities not only in her biography and context, but also in the development of her thought.
