{"product_id":"the-letters-of-margaret-fuller-7","title":"The Letters of Margaret Fuller","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe third volume of this major series opens with Fuller's decision in early 1842 to resign her post as editor of \u003ci\u003eThe Dial\u003c\/i\u003e, after she realized she would never be paid for her work there. It closes with her in New York, having accepted Horace Greeley's invitation to work as a book reviewer for \u003ci\u003eThe Daily Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e. Her position was nearly without precedent for a woman, and she wrote enthusiastically of her job that it provided \"a more various view of life than any I ever before was in.\" She found herself in a larger world: the new tasks of daily journalism replaced the demands of \u003ci\u003eThe Dial\u003c\/i\u003e, and a mass audience replaced her coterie of intellectual readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese were prolific years for Fuller, during which she wrote on a wide variety of subjects, and the letters chronicle her progress on a number of projects, among them her travel book, \u003ci\u003eSummer on the Lakes\u003c\/i\u003e, in 1843, which grew out of a trip to the Midwest; her translation of Bettina von Arnim's \u003ci\u003eDie Günderode\u003c\/i\u003e; and her essays on contemporary poetry, fiction, and drama. She devoted the fall of 1844 to expanding \"The Great Lawsuit,\" an essay she had written for \u003ci\u003eThe Dial\u003c\/i\u003e; the letters document how the piece grew to become her most important book—\u003ci\u003eWoman in the Nineteenth Century\u003c\/i\u003e, a provocative study of woman's role in American life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Margaret Fuller. edited by Robert N.
