Woman in the Nineteenth Century by Margaret Fuller

"Woman in the Nineteenth Century" by Margaret Fuller is a book published in 1845. Originally appearing as an essay in 1843, Fuller's work argues that true human enlightenment requires equality between men and women. She examines marriage, individual self-dependence, and the need for women's intellectual and spiritual freedom. Drawing on transcendentalist philosophy, Fuller envisions a society where both sexes share divine love as equals, claiming that women must become self-reliant individuals before genuine union can occur. Her groundbreaking feminist work calls for expanded rights and opportunities for women. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
