Produktbeschreibung
Woman in the Nineteenth Century is a book by American journalist, editor, and women's rights advocate Margaret Fuller. The basis for Fuller's essay is the idea that man will rightfully inherit the earth when he becomes an elevated being, understanding of divine love. There have been periods in time when the world was more awake to this love, but people are sleeping now; however, everyone has the power to become enlightened. Man cannot now find perfection because he is still burdened with selfish desires, but Fuller is optimistic and says that we are on the verge of a new awakening. She claims that in the past man, like Orpheus for Eurydice, has always called out for woman, but soon will come the time when women will call for men, when they will be equals and share a mortgage.
Autorenporträt
Sarah Margaret Fuller (May 23, 1810 - July 19, 1850) was an American journalist, editor, critic, translator, and women's rights campaigner who was a member of the American transcendentalism movement. She was the first female American war journalist and full-time book critic in journalism. Woman in the Nineteenth Century is often regarded as the first important feminist literature published in the United States. Sarah Margaret Fuller was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and had a good education from her father, Timothy Fuller, a lawyer who died of cholera in 1835. She then received more formal education and became a teacher before launching her Conversations series in 1839 to compensate for women's lack of access to higher education. In 1840, she became the first editor of the transcendentalist periodical The Dial, which launched her literary career, before joining the staff of the New-York Tribune under Horace Greeley in 1844.
