Modern Virtue is the first book length treatment of Mary Wollstonecraft's theology and religion, the first to show the centrality of each for her account of the vrtues and revolution, and the first by a scholar in these fields. While Wollstonecraft is canonical in many other fields, she is mostly unknown or ignored in virtue ethics, theology, and religion. This book remedies this omission and the prevalent narratives sustained by it in the latter as well as predominant views of her religion and virtue in the former.
