Vindications with two Marys!

Hi All:

For the month of April, we will be reading Mary Wollstonecraft with our very own Dr. Mary Favret! Dr. Favret has written on Wollstonecraft quite extensively, and teaches Wollstonecraft's works across her undergraduate and graduate courses.

For the venue, Dr. Favret has selected Ami (1500 E. 3rd ST.) as the restaurant and meeting place of choice. While there are a variety of vegetarian, meat, and fish dishes to choose from admist sushi and traditional Japanese dishes, there is also good wine and beer selection, as well as reasonably low priced appetizers if you prefer to sip and snack, rather than feast, during discussion.

We will be meeting Monday, April 7th, at Ami from 6 - 7:30 p.m. From 6-6:30 p.m., we will have casual discussion, snacking, and ordering. Discussion proper will begin at 6:30 and run until 7:30.

Please let Rachel or Kate know if you plan on attending so we know how many to ask for when we get a table! Do show up to support your group and your faculty--especially considering it's a short read this week! For a link to the text, click below.

Readings

Primary: Mary Wollstonecraft, A Vindication of the Rights of Man

Secondary: (not required, but if you can get your hands on Mary Favret's chapter on Wollstonecraft in Romantic Correspondence, you should give it a good read--it's excellent! If I can get my hands on a copy in time, I will post it here!)
