Beskrivelse

Margaret Fuller, a pioneering American feminist and intellectual, played a vital role in the Transcendentalist movement. Her groundbreaking book, Woman in the Nineteenth Century (1845), is recognized as the first significant feminist work in the United States. In her short but impactful life, she became the first editor of the transcendentalist journal The Dial in 1840 and later joined the New York Tribune under Horace Greeley in 1844. By her 30s, Fuller was renowned as the most literate individual in New England and was the first woman permitted to access the Harvard College library. After her seminal work was published, she became the Tribunes first female correspondent in Europe, engaging with the Italian revolutions and forming a close alliance with Giuseppe Mazzini. Her life was tragically cut short when she, along with her partner Giovanni Ossoli and their child, perished in a shipwreck off Fire Island, New York, in 1850. This project gathers her most celebrated writings, including key excerpts from her journals and letters. (Summary by Wikipedia and Elizabeth Klett)
