Fuller in Her Own Time - A Biographical Chronicle of Her Life, Drawn from Recollections,

Informationen zum Autor Joel Myerson is distinguished professor emeritus of American literature at the University of South Carolina. An authority on Transcendentalism and textual and bibliographical studies, he has written, edited, coauthored, or coedited some fifty books, including Whitman in His Own Time (Iowa paperback, 2000) and Emerson in His Own Time (Iowa, 2003). Klappentext Writer, editor, journalist, educator, feminist, conversationalist, and reformer Margaret Fuller (1810-1850) was one of the leading intellectuals of nineteenth-century America as well as a prominent member of Concord literary circles. Yet the challenging spirit behind her intellectual confidence and mesmerizing energy led to the invention of an unbalanced legacy that denied her a place among the canonical Concord writers. This collection of first-hand reminiscences by those who knew Fuller personally rescues her from these confusions and provides a clearer identity for this misrepresented personality.
