The Wit & Wisdom of Margaret Fuller Ossoli

This book includes the wit and wisdom of Margaret Fuller, which is as alive and pertinent as it was over a century ago. Much of her wit and wisdom has been lost to posterity since much generated from Fuller's day-to-day conversation. Yet shinning through is the revelation of a singular woman of stature whose accomplishments and large-minded humanity can be a source for inspiration. Lifting Margaret Fuller's words from her works has involved minimal editing, because her style often seems involved and complex to the modern reader. Her scholarly references have meaning for the knowledgeable few today. Even so, her acute perceptions stand to be of highest quality and universal significance. General interest. Adult. Women's studies.
