A Note From the Editors
Roughly eight years ago we met in Manhattan with Nick Phillipson to plan a new journal to be launched by Cambridge University Press. Two Americans who knew each and had worked together well, and who were largely in agreement about what MIH should accomplish. We were well aware of the quality of Nick's scholarship, of course, and had heard through the transatlantic grapevine that he was a great colleague. Still, we were more than a little apprehen…
A Message From the Editors
This issue marks an important stage in the Journal's development. In our original mission statement we recognized that Modern Intellectual History was likely in the first instance to be devoted to publishing work on intellectual history that was essentially Western in orientation and we looked forward to the day in which it would be possible to extend our reach to non-Western as well as Western history

The Storied Facts of Margaret Fuller
AFTER I finished writing a book on Margaret Fuller and Ralph Waldo Emerson, the Haverford provost asked me to share my research interests with students, faculty, and other members of the college community.' Given the recent spate of publications about Fuller, including Bell Chevigny's revised and important anthology, Robert Hudspeth's completed edition of her letters, and the awardwinning biography by Charles Capper, I found myself inclined to re…
Margaret Fuller
This book draws fully on first-hand sources to paint a compelling portrait of the private life of Margaret Fuller, the organizer of the Dial (the journal of the Transcendental movement) and an important figure in early American literature. This text is the first of a two-volume biography.
Rustication (1821–1825)
This chapter examines Margaret Fuller's early education at Dr. John Park's Boston Lyceum for Young Ladies in Boston, Massachusetts, during the period from 1821 to 1825. At this early stage in her life, Fuller had shown her rather grim determination to succeed and developed two intellectual traits: a critical feeling for literature combined with a heated literary voraciousness. In 1825, Fuller went back and plunged into Cambridge society.

Margaret Fuller as Cultural Reformer: The Conversations in Boston
THE HISTORIOGRAPHY OF NEW ENGLAND TRANSCENDENTALISM IS PARADOXICAL. For over a century it has been frequently pointed out that what most distinguished the American variety of Transcendentalism from its contemporary European variants was its character as a semipopular movement. 1 Yet despite the massive literature on Transcendentalism, very little of it has addressed itself to this facet. Nor has very much attention been paid to what was the centr…
