Margaret Fuller

    Margaret Fuller was a towering figure of American transcendentalism, a journalist, and a critic who championed women's rights. She served as the first full-time female book reviewer in journalism, and her seminal work, "Woman in the Nineteenth Century," is recognized as the first major feminist text in the United States. Fuller was renowned for her "conversations," intellectual gatherings designed for women to compensate for their limited access to higher education. Her writing is characterized by its intellectual rigor and bold engagement with social reform, advocating for causes such as prison reform and the emancipation of enslaved people. Her lifelong dedication and insights have solidified her legacy as an inspiration to many advocates for women's rights and feminism.

    • When first published in 1845, Woman in the Nineteenth Century was one of the most popular and influential works of feminism in its time, selling out in its first edition within a week. However, this major work by Margaret Fuller has not been widely available to modern readers before now. This edition presents the complete text of Fuller's famous work, as well as a collection of other important writings that provide an expansive vision of Fuller's thought. Ranging widely from the Woman Question to the European revolutionary movements in which she played a direct part, her thought prefigures important themes in modern feminism.
