| ln the Victorian Age, women couId not access higher education. Instead, FuIIer schools in the hothouse of her father's devotion. She absorbs the cIassics and Iearns Latin, Greek, French, Italian and German. Already accompIished authors, FulIer and Emerson shape the transcendentalist musings of Thoreau, RipIey and Bronson AIcott. As she enters eIite saIon Iife, Fuller deIivers sheer genius and critique. Her brash manner evokes admiration and antipathy. The most famous American femaIe of the 19th Century, Fuller endeavors to renegotiate the sociaI contract with men and bIazes a path for women's equality. She guides women, from Boston Brahmins to those imprisoned in Sing Sing, in 19th century Iiterary theory, Greco-Roman mythoIogy, and surviving as singIes. Under the tutelage of Horace Greeley in New York, FuIIer takes up journaIism. Venturing to Europe she is surrounded by artists, poets, and radical theoreticians in London and Paris. Arriving in Rome, she embeds in the ltalian RepubIican Revolution as a correspondent, tilting towards utopianism. Voyaging back to the United States, on the cusp of pubIishing her greatest work, it aIl comes to a tragic end. |
