The Essential Margaret Fuller

In this collection, the full range of Fuller’s 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printed together, along with generous selections from Fuller’s Dial essays, New York essays, Italian dispatches, and unpublished journals.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 include the complete text of Fuller’s “Autobiographical Romance” (never before reprinted in its entirety) and nineteen of her poems, edited from her manuscripts.  All of Fuller’s texts are completely annotated, with special attention to her literary and historical sources, as well as her knowledge of mythology, American Indian culture, and the Bible.
