| Sommario/riassunto: | "Harriet Martineau was a major figure in the Victorian period and a prominent speaker in a number of contemporary cultural debates, including those on racism, atheism, abolitionism, and the status of women. Her various books, novels, essays, and articles generated tremendous controversy in their reception as they forced such topics of debate into the public realm."--Jacket |
