In 1796 Mary Wollstonecraft began a liaison with William Godwin, a social philosopher, and on March 29, 1797, they were married. The marriage was happy but brief; Wollstonecraft died on September 10, 1797, just days after the birth of their daughter, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin, who became a novelist best known as the author of Frankenstein (1818).
