    In The Christian Religion (1705) Astell defended the love of God as sole good against the anonymous Discourse (1696), which she ascribed to Locke; Masham wrote it. M. Astell, The Christian Religion (1705); D. Masham, A Discourse concerning the Love of God (1696); SEP “Mary Astell”

    Masham’s Discourse concerning the Love of God (1696) answered Astell and Norris’s Letters (1695): loving God alone would undermine the love of fellow creatures that society needs. D.

作品

立场

Astell drew on Descartes and Malebranche to argue that reason belongs to women as fully as to men, and that their apparent inferiority is the product of a neglected education. In A Serious Proposal to the Ladies she suggested a kind of college or retreat where women could devote themselves to learning and piety. Her Reflections upon Marriage asked why absolute power should be condemned in the state but defended in the household, and why, if all men are born free, all women are born slaves. A sharp critic of Locke, she is often called the first English feminist.

生平与背景

Mary Astell was born in 1666 in Newcastle upon Tyne into a family of coal merchants and was taught by her uncle, a clergyman. Around 1688 she moved to London and settled in Chelsea, where she lived from her writing and the support of a circle of learned women. A devout Anglican and a Tory, she helped found a charity school for girls. She died in 1731.
