Autorenporträt
Lydia Maria Child, born on February 11, 1802, in Medford, Massachusetts, was a prolific American author, abolitionist, and advocate for rights for women and Native Americans. An influential literary figure, Child began her career with the publication of 'Hobomok' in 1824, a novel that addressed interracial marriage. Her oeuvre includes domestic manuals, historical texts, novels, and anti-slavery tracts, exemplifying her diverse interests and commitment to social reform. Notably, her 1833 book 'An Appeal in Favor of that Class of Americans Called Africans' was among the earliest anti-slavery works, and it cemented her role in the abolitionist movement. Child's significant work 'The Frugal Housewife', dedicated to those 'who are not ashamed of economy,' was widely read and acclaimed for its practical advice on household management. Her literary style often intertwined didactic elements with a progressive stance on social issues. In her later years, Child continued her advocacy through literature, evident in her comprehensive 'Isaac T. Hopper: A True Life' (1853), a biography of the Quaker abolitionist that served both as a tribute to an individual's devotion to human rights and as a document reflecting the reformist spirit of the age. Child's contributions to American literature and social activism remained impactful long after her death on October 20, 1880, establishing her as an integral figure in the canon of 19th-century American writers and reformers.
