Title
A Lydia Maria Child Reader (New Americanists),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
From the 1820s to the 1870s, Lydia Maria Child was as familiar to the American public as her Thanksgiving song, 'Over the river and through the wood, / To grandfathers house we go,' remains today. Hardly a sphere of nineteenthcentury life can be found in which Child did not figure prominently as a pathbreaker. She crusaded against slavery and racism, combated religious bigotry, championed womens rights, publicized the plight of the urban poor, and campaigned for justice toward Native Americans. Showing an uncanny ability to pinpoint and respond to new cultural needs, Child pioneered almost every category of nineteenthcentury American lettershistorical fiction, the short story, childrens literature, the domestic advice book, womens history, antislavery fiction, journalism, and the literature of aging.This rich collection is the first to represent the full range of Childs contributions as a literary innovator, social reformer, and progressive thinker over a career spanning six decades. It features stories, editorials, articles, and letters to politicians culled from rare newspapers and periodicals and never before published in book form; extracts from her trailblazing childrearing manual, history of women, and primer for the emancipated slaves; and a generous sampling of her bestknown writings on slavery, the Indian question, poverty, and womens rights. Witty, incisive, and often daringly unconventional, Childs writings open a panoramic window on nineteenthcentury American culture while addressing issues still relevant to our own time. In this anthology, the editor of Harriet Jacobss Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl reemerges in her own right as one of the nations greatest prophets.
