This single-volume selection of the letters of Margaret Fuller
affords a unique opportunity for renewed acquaintance with a great
American thinker of the Transcendentalist circle. The letters
represent Fuller at all stages of her life and career, and show her
engaged as literary critic, as translator and as champion of German
literature and thought, as teacher, as travel writer, as literary
editor, as journalist, as feminist, as revolutionary, as wife and
mother. "My Heart Is a Large Kingdom", unlike previous collections,
includes only letters transcribed from Fuller's manuscripts and
does not reproduce correspondence known only from printed sources
and copies in hands other than Fuller's.
Among the recipients of the letters in this generous selection
are such literary and cultural figures as Bronson Alcott, Elizabeth
Barrett Browning, Arthur Hugh Clough, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Giuseppe
Mazzini, Giovanni Angelo Ossoli (Fuller's husband), George Ripley,
and Henry David Thoreau. Taken together, the letters serve as a
chronicle of Fuller's lifetime and provide glimpses into her
thoughts and feelings during the years of the "Conversations",
Dial, and the revolution in Rome.
