"Maria W. Stewart: Essential Writings of a Nineteenth-Century Black Political Philosopher, offers the most comprehensive and contextually dynamic collection of Stewart's incredible corpus to date. All of Stewart's known essays, lectures, and fiction, including recently discovered texts, are in this volume. Its extended introduction and detailed notes situate Stewart's political philosophy in the rich intellectual contexts within which she worked, including abolitionism, black nationalism, feminism, and sentimentalism"-- Provided by publisher. |
