Courte biographie
Margaret Fuller was born in Massachusetts and educated at home by her father. She went away to school and continued her reading of the classics and study of languages, learning German, French, Italian, Greek, and Latin. She became a teacher, and a member of the Transcendentalist movement and Boston literary circles. In 1845, she published Woman in the Nineteenth Century, a feminist tract that grew into a book, and with Ralph Wald Emerson co-founded the Transcendentalist journal, The Dial. In 1844, she relocated to New York City to serve as literary and cultural critic for he New York Tribune. In 1846, she travelled to Europe to serve as a foreign correspondent for the Tribune. After touring England and France, she went to Rome, where she met Marchese Giovanni Ossoli, with whom she had a son. The couple married and decided to return to the USA. They set sail from Livorno, Italy on May 17, 1850, reaching the waters off Fire Island, New York on June 19. In the early hours of the morning, the ship struck a sandbar and slowly sank. Margaret Fuller was lost at sea.

Critiques

An "early" feminist book that could have been written much more recently than 1855, filled with clear, specific goals and recommended means.

Almost my brand of feminism... Minus a couple of things.

"These Sad But Glorious Days" is a series of columns published in the New-York Tribune, collected together. The bits where Fuller was in England were among the more interesting, as she relates a first-person, outsider perspective on many of the issues that I study. Her time in France is okay, but the book really picks up when she gets to Italy, since revolution is brewing. Again, the first-person perspective is great, especially once Rome comes under attack. On the other hand, she prints too many long speeches which I just skipped over.

The book's introduction, by editors Larry J. Reynolds and Susan Belasco Smith, annoyed me. No, it's not a crime against literature to republish something in a new context, and you don't need to apologize for it.

I'm afraid I grew rather tired of this. I might have enjoyed it in small doses since much of the writing is worthwhile and graceful, but as a single work read in consecutive pieces, it just grows rather repetitive in subject-matter and randomness. My recommendation would be to read it in chapters as you might wander through an anthology of stories--I think it might stay fresh and not become exhaustive in that case. Otherwise, for someone who enjoys the other transcendentalists, this is probably worthwhile; for me, it was a bit longwinded. I'd love to follow in her footsteps and visit some of these sights, but that's about all I can say at this point. Just not for me.… (plus d'informations)
