The document summarizes and compares two works that discuss women's rights - Vindication of the Rights of Woman by Mary Wollstonecraft and Rights of Woman by Anna Barbauld. Both authors believe in women's equality, though they portray their message in somewhat different ways. Wollstonecraft takes a firm tone in arguing that women deserve the same rational and intellectual education as men. Barbauld also advocates for improved women's education, but does so somewhat more gently without directly criticizing the status quo. Overall, the works relate to each other in their shared goal of increasing women's rights, though they employ different rhetorical styles.
