Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary: Mary Astell and Lady Mary Wortley Montagu
Mary Astell and Lady Mary Wortley Montagu had a lot more in common than having a record book full of firsts— the first English feminist, the founder of the first school with an all female board of governors, the first English female travel writer, the first woman published in the Spectator. They were also connected by a passion for politics, a commitment to justice, and a strong friendship. Throughout their more than fifteen-year friendship, the women certainly influenced each other, and even the ends of their lives mirrored each other.
