Autor

Eliza Lee Cabot Follen was an American writer, editor, and abolitionist, born on August 15, 1787, in Boston, Massachusetts. She was the daughter of Samuel Cabot and Sarah Barrett, and she grew up in a family with strong intellectual and social ties. Eliza began her writing career early, contributing prose and poetry to newspapers and magazines, becoming well-known for her insightful works that touched on various social issues of her time. In 1828, she married Professor Charles Follen, a German-born intellectual and abolitionist, who tragically died in a shipwreck aboard the Lexington in 1840. This loss deeply affected Eliza, but she continued her activism, particularly in the abolitionist movement, where she worked to promote the end of slavery. Throughout her life, she used her writing and her influence to advocate for justice and equality. Eliza Lee Cabot Follen passed away on January 26, 1860, in Brookline, Massachusetts, at the age of 72, leaving behind a legacy of commitment to social reform and the rights of the oppressed. Her contributions to literature and her advocacy for freedom remain a significant part of her legacy.
