Description
Woman in the Nineteenth Century by Margaret Fuller (1810–1850) is a foundational feminist work addressing the social and moral status of women in America. Published in 1845, it advocates for equal rights, education, and intellectual freedom for women. Fuller challenges traditional gender roles and argues that women should develop as independent individuals, not just as wives or mothers. A key figure in the Transcendentalist movement, Fuller’s work had a lasting influence on feminist thought and the broader fight for gender equality.
