Download or read book Lucy Larcom written by Lucy Larcom and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2010-03-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A New England Girlhood" is the autobiography of poet Lucy Larcom. Arriving in Lowell, Massachusetts, in the 1830s after the death of her shipmaster father, eleven-year-old Lucy Larcom went to work in a textile mill to help her family make ends meet. Originally published in 1889, her engaging autobiography offers glimpses of the early years of the American factory system as well as of the social influences on her development. It remains an important and illuminating document of the Industrial Revolution and nineteenth-century cultural history. In addition to offering an interesting view of the industrial experiment, where Yankee farm girls were brought in to work in the factories, "A New England Girlhood" weaves Christian morals into Lucy Larcom's story. While considered moralistic by some, this book will be positively refreshing to many others. The ninth of ten children, Lucy Larcom left Beverly, Massachusetts, in 1835 to work in the cotton mills in Lowell from the ages of 11 to 21. As a mill girl she hoped to earn some extra money for her family. While working at the mills in Lowell, Lucy made a huge impact. She wrote and published many of her songs, poems, and letters describing her life at the mills. Her idealistic poems caught the attention of John Greenleaf Whittier. Lucy Larcom served as a model for the change in women's roles in society. In the 1840s, she taught at a school in Illinois before returning to Massachusetts. From 1865 to 1873, she was the editor of Our Young Folks, later renamed St. Nicholas Magazine. Today "A New England Girlhood" is considered to be one of the best accounts of New England childhood of Lucy Larcom's time, and is commonly used as a reference in studying early American childhood.

Book Synopsis Working Women, Literary Ladies by : Sylvia J. Cook
Download or read book Working Women, Literary Ladies written by Sylvia J. Cook and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working Women, Literary Ladies explores the simultaneous entry of working-class women in the United States into wage-earning factory labor and into opportunities for mental and literary development. It is the first book to examine the fascinating exchange between the work and literary spheres for laboring women in the rapidly industrializing America of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As women entered the public sphere as workers, their opportunities for intellectual growth expanded, even as those same opportunities were often tightly circumscribed by the factory owners who were providing them. These developments, both institutional and personal, opened up a range of new possibilities for working-class women that profoundly affected women of all classes and the larger social fabric. Cook examines the extraordinary and diverse literary productions of these working women, ranging from their first New England magazine of belles lettres, The Lowell Offering, to Emma Goldman's periodical, Mother Earth; from Lucy Larcom's epic poem of female factory life, An Idyl of Work, to Theresa Malkiel's fictional account of sweatshop workers in New York, The Diary of a Shirtwaist Striker. This vital new book traces the hopes and tensions generated by the expectations of working-class women as they created a wholly new way of being alive in the world.
