A wife and mother of seven, she was also a prolific writer, transatlantic women's rights leader, popular lecturer, congressional candidate, canny historian, and freethought champion. Her lifelong interest in women's sexual and reproductive rights and late efforts to reform institutional religion are as relevant to our time as they were to her own.Stanton's professional life lasted a half-century, ranging from antebellum women's rights organization and oratory, to a post-Civil War career as a lyceum lecturer, to a late-century role as an incisive religious and cultural critic. Acutely aware of the medical, religious, legal, and educational barriers to women's independence, she advocated for married women's right to vote, obtain a divorce, gain custody of their children, and own property. As she grew more radical over the years, she also demanded judicial reform, the separation of church and state, free love, progressive coeducational opportunities, and women's right to limit their fertility. In this richly contextualized collection of primary sources, Noelle A. Baker brings together accounts of Stanton's life and ideas from both well-known and recently recovered figures. From the teacher chiding an assertive young woman to erstwhile allies worrying about her growing radicalism, their voices paint a vivid portrait of a woman of vaunting ambition, powerhouse intellect, and her share of human failings. 410 0$aWriters in their own time. 606 $aWomen's rights$zUnited States 606 $aWomen$xSuffrage$zUnited States 606 $aFeminists$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aSocial reformers$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aSuffragists$zUnited States$vBiography 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWomen's rights 615 0$aWomen$xSuffrage 615 0$aFeminists 615 0$aSocial reformers 615 0$aSuffragists 676 $a305.42092 676 $aB 702 $aBaker$b Noelle A$g(Noelle Annette),$f1964- 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136084103321 996 $aStanton in Her Own Time$92893502 997 $aUNINA
