Mary Wollstonecraft, often described as the first major feminist, is remembered principally as the author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), and there has been a tendency to view her most famous work in isolation. Yet Wollstonecraft's pronouncements about women grew out of her reflections about men, and her views on the female sex constituted an integral part of a wider moral and political critique of her times which she first fully formulated in A Vindication of the Rights of Men (1790).

The Oracle examines what it means to be a woman in the modern world and explores the four types of women: oracles, queens, princesses, and whores.

Where the world encourages women to become men by competing with men, The Oracle allows a woman to find harmony with the male species by embracing her femininity.
