A century and a half after her death, Margaret Fuller is recognized as «America’s female intellectual prophet» (Charles Capper), a thinker of stunning acumen and foresight-feminist theoretician of gender and culture, literary and social critic, foreign correspondent, teacher, writer, revolutionist. The essays in this volume discuss her «seven practices» of cultural critique, her feminism as a road not taken, the twentieth-century life of her ideas, and her relationships with Lydia Maria Child, Julia Ward Howe, and Nathaniel Hawthorne; they contain analyses of language, perception, and voice, Fuller’s travel writing at home and abroad, and her brother Arthur’s editing practices. The broad range of biographical and critical scholarship assembled in this book contributes to the growing comprehension of Fuller’s pioneering life and work.
