Read the passages entitled “Rousseau Argues for Separate Spheres for Men and Women” and “Mary Wollstonecraft Criticizes Rousseau’s View of Women” from your textbook. After you have read the passages, research the two documents “Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen” and “Declaration of the Rights of Woman and Female Citizen” to gain some background knowledge on the topic. Defend the stance of either Rousseau or Wollstonecraft, with factual evidence, in a well-developed response or essay. Cite your sources.
