Mary Wollstonecraft
An Historical and Moral View of the Origin and Progress of the French Revolution and the Effect It Has Produced in Europe
C+
Wollstonecraft makes the point that the "ferocity" of the French Revolution was nothing compared to the oppression that the French aristocrats inflicted on the commoners. She also insults the king, as fat, crude, and disgusting, and the queen, as spoiled and actress-like.
