Her story of a woman incarcerated in a madhouse by her abusive husband dramatizes the effect of the English marriage laws, which made women virtually the property of their husbands. Left uncompleted at Wollstonecrafts early death, Maria remains a powerful work of propaganda, a unique picture of womens status in eighteenth-century England.
