  • Copyright (C) 2005 Fruitlands Museum, Harvard, Massachusetts Permission to Publish from This Material Should Be Discussed with the Museum Curator
    Guide to the Transcendentalist Manuscript Collection, Fruitlands Museum, Harvard, Massachusetts www.fruitlands.org REGISTER MS T.1 S. Margaret Fuller Ossoli (1810-1850) Papers, ca 1836-1850 Size: 2 Linear inches Acquisition: Materials were purchased from The Goodspeed Book Shop by Clara Endicott Sears BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH S. Margaret Fuller Ossoli (May 23, 1810-July 19, 1850) was a well known author, lecturer, and Transcendentalist in the Nineteenth Century. She is often called a "bluestocking", because of her feminist beliefs and unconventional life. She was born Sarah Margaret Fuller, the first of nine children of Timothy and Margaret Fuller of Cambridgeport, Massachusetts. Her father was determined to give her a masculine education according to the classical curriculum of the day. The exacting and regimental education began at a very young age and was to take a great toll on her health. But it also gave her abroad knowledge of literature and languages. Following the completion of her formal studies, Margaret gained entrance into the intellectual circles of Cambridge and Harvard. Here she formed lasting friendships with many New England intellectuals. In 1836, Margaret Fuller was hired to teach languages at Bronson Alcott's Temple School. She stayed only a year, but continued her teaching career in Providence Rhode Island at the Greene Street School. In 1839, she returned to Massachusetts and began conducting "Conversations" for society women and others in Boston. At this time, Margaret Fuller also became an integral part of the Transcendentalist Movement. From 1840 to 1842 she edited and contributed to the Transcendentalist journal, The Dial. In 1845, she published her feminist work, Woman in the Nineteenth Century.
