Margaret Fuller: A New American Life by Megan Marshall is now available for free ePub download or online reading.<\/p>\n
Intro:<\/strong><\/p>\n The award-winning author of The Peabody Sisters<\/i> takes a fresh look at the trailblazing life of a great American heroine\u2014Thoreau\u2019s first editor, Emerson\u2019s close friend, first female war correspondent, and passionate advocate of personal liberation and political freedom.<\/p>\n From an early age, Margaret Fuller provoked and dazzled New England\u2019s intellectual elite. Her famous Conversations changed women\u2019s sense of how they could think and live, her editorship of the Transcendentalist literary journal The Dial shaped American Romanticism. Now, Megan Marshall, whose acclaimed The Peabody Sisters \u201cdiscovered\u201d three fascinating women, has done it again: no biography of Fuller has made her ideas so alive or her life so moving.<\/p>\n Marshall tells the story of how Fuller, tired of Boston, accepted Horace Greeley\u2019s offer to be the New York Tribune\u2019s front-page columnist. The move unleashed a crusading concern for the urban poor and the plight of prostitutes, and a late-in-life hunger for passionate experience. In Italy as a foreign correspondent, Fuller took a secret lover, a young officer in the Roman Guard, she wrote dispatches on the brutal 1849 Siege of Rome, and she gave birth to a son.<\/p>\n Yet, when all three died in a shipwreck off Fire Island shortly after Fuller\u2019s 40th birthday, the sense and passion of her life\u2019s work were eclipsed by tragedy and scandal. Marshall\u2019s inspired account brings an American heroine back to indelible life.. First published January 1, 2013. Original format: Hardcover.
