Sarah Margaret Fuller (1810–1850)

See biography, media, quotes. Born Sarah Margaret Fuller in Cambridge, Massachusetts, she was the most important gender theorist of her time. Her father, Timothy Fuller, a lawyer and prominent politician, gave her a vigorous classical education which shaped the bend of her mind but--according to Fuller's own testimony--also sensitized her to the personal expense of her society's masculinized values.
