Sommario/riassunto |
|
Catharine Macaulay and Mercy Otis were radical friends in a revolutionary age. Drawing on new research, this book considers Macaulay and Warren in the context of the revolutionary Atlantic. In a series of detailed interdisciplinary studies, Davis suggests the centrality of both women to transatlantic political cultures. |
