Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Portrait of Mrs. W: A Play in Three Acts With an Epilogue This play attempts to bring into close range a name and a face. Dramatically, it is wilfully built against traditions of stage structure. But the plea of all that Mary Wollstonecraft had to leave unsaid and undone, the tragedy of death at the hour so looked to for deeds, or utterance, that clamor of unfulfilment, made it impossible for this chronicler to deal with the story according to its more obvious stage possibilities. Mary Wollstonecraft was born the 27th of April, 1759. She was the eldest daughter in a large family, harassed and saddened from their earliest youth by their father´s intemperance and brutality and the poverty which it brought upon them. The mother, whose embittered days were forever scarred upon her daughter´s heart, died in 1780, and soon the father sank to such depths that his three daughters were forced to leave him and seek home and livelihood elsewhere.
