Famous for her short fiction - most notably "The Yellow Wallpaper"
- Charlotte Perkins Gilman also produced a vast body of nonfiction
in tandem with her work as a Progressive-era feminist reformer.
Rooted in groundbreaking research on Gilman's extensive
correspondence, publications, and speeches, this keenly argued
intellectual biography reconstructs her controversial output and
the heady context in which she produced it. Judith Allen provides
the first comprehensive assessment of Gilman's complicated feminism
by exploring the renowned writer's theories of sexuality and
evolutionary analyses of androcentric, or male-dominated, culture.
These ideas, Allen shows, informed Gilman's many contributions to
the suffrage movement, the fight to abolish regulated prostitution,
and efforts to legalize birth control. Restoring a previously
overlooked public intellectual to her preeminent place in
Progressive-era politics and the history of feminism at home and
abroad, Allen's landmark study provides the fullest account
available of Gilman's consequential life and profoundly influential
work.
