The Dead Ladies Show is a series of entertaining and inspiring talks about women who achieved amazing things against all odds, presented live in Berlin. This podcast is based on that series.
In this episode: FRANKENFRAUEN! We kick off our four-part series of historic women with connection to the iconic gothic novel Frankenstein, in honor of its 100th birthday in 2018. First up, DLS co-founder Katy Derbyshire tells us about the life of Mary Wollstonecraft. This philosopher and proto-feminist also happens to be the mother of Frankenstein author Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley.
See images of Mary Wollstonecraft and find out more about her work in our show notes:
