In this new collection, the full range of her literary career is represented from her earliest poetry to her final dispatch from revolutionary Italy. For the first time, the complete texts of Woman in the Nineteenth Century and Summer on the Lakes are printed together, along with generous selections from Fuller's Dial essays, New York essays, Italian dispatches, and unpublished journals. Special features are the complete text of Fuller's famous \"Autobiographical Romance\" (never before reprinted in its entirety) and nineteen of her poems, edited from her manuscripts. All of Fuller's major texts are completely annotated, with special attention to her literary and historical sources, as well as her knowledge of American Indian culture, mythology, and the Bible\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJeffrey Steele's introduction provides an important revision of Fuller's biography and literary career, tracing the growth of her feminism and her development into one of America's preeminent social critics. No other writer of Fuller's day could match the range of her experience. Growing up in the world of Boston intellectuals, she was the close friend of the Alcotts, Emerson, Hawthorne, and Thoreau. But she also traveled adventurously to the western frontier, canoed down rapids with Chippewa Indians, visited the outcast and the poor in New York's institutions and prisons, and experienced the rigors of war during the bombardment of Rome. As a whole, this anthology provides the material to understand one of the most fascinating nineteenth-century American women writers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Notes to Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Selected Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e Chronology\u003cbr\u003e A Note on the Text\u003cbr\u003e Self-Definitions, 1835-42\u003cbr\u003e Autobriographical Romance\u003cbr\u003e The Magnolia of Lake Pontchartrain\u003cbr\u003e Yuca Filamentosa\u003cbr\u003e Leila\u003cbr\u003e Bettine Brentanto and Her Friend Gunderode\u003cbr\u003e Summer on the Lakes\u003cbr\u003e 1844 Poetry\u003cbr\u003e Woman in the Nineteenth Century\u003cbr\u003e New-York Tribune Reviews and Essays\u003cbr\u003e Emerson's Essays\u003cbr\u003e Our City Charities\u003cbr\u003e Prevalent Idea that Politeness is too great a luxury to be given to the poor\u003cbr\u003e The Wrongs of American Women.
