The National Endowment for the Humanities awarded a $299,999 Project Grant under the Promotion of the Humanities Research program (CFDA 45.161) to the University of Notre Dame DU Lac. From 2024 to 2027, a team led by Nancy Johnson (SUNY-New Paltz) and Eileen Hunt (University of Notre Dame) will produce the first fully annotated scholarly edition of Mary Wollstonecraft's seminal political treatises "A Vindication of the Rights of Men" (1790) and "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman" (1792) for publication in Oxford University Press's Collected Works of Mary Wollstonecraft. This project will leverage digital humanities tools to create new scholarly editions based on the second, author-corrected editions of these foundational texts on rights-based democracy, which are held in Notre Dame's rare books collection.
