Abstract

Abstract lydia maria child (1802–1880) was one of the best-known women intellectuals of the nineteenth century on the American scene, and yet her name is not often heard today. Although it might seem gratuitous to attempt to label a thinker—and, in some cases, not only unnecessary, but demeaning—there is ample reason to think that Child can be called a transcendentalist, as well as an early abolitionist and feminist. In any case, the independent and very forward-looking work of this woman thinker of her time, it can be argued, deserves further consideration and is not without philosophical import.
