    Extractions: click here to go to a "donation for money to fix it" page Domestic Goddess Louisa May Alcott is perhaps most famous for writing Little Women , (1868) a novel which is partially autobiographical and has shaped the way many women since the Victorian era have defined womanhood, family, and girlhood. Since the early 1970's, the public has known about the stories that Alcott published under the pseudonym A. M. Barnard. These gothic "potboilers" are filled with delightfully feminist femmes fatales, intrigue, and dare-we-say-it, smut (at least by Victorian standards). Read more about this author, who was more versatile than many of us knew. Born in 1832 in to Bronson (a noted Transcendentalist who was friends with Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne and Henry David Thoreau, among others) and Abba Alcott (daughter of Colonel Joseph May and a vocal proponent for women's rights and abolition), Louisa May Alcott constantly struggled with the anger and individualistic spirit that came naturally to her. Bronson Alcott's belief that children were tabulae rasae femmes fatales As a Transcendental and a Victorian, Bronson tended to see his duty as a parent in the same light as reformers of the time, who stressed their belief that heredity and parenting were "the means to create new generations" and that one must encourage "having all that is great, and noble, and good in man, all that is pure, and virtuous, and beautiful, and angelic in woman" (William Alcott, qtd. in Russett 199). The Victorian understanding of child-rearing included the idea that "parents, ensuring their own physical and mental health by right living, could pass this health on to their offspring" (Russett 199). Bronson firmly embraced the ideas that as a parent, he could make the world a better place by molding his daughters to imitate his own perfection. His attempts to make Louisa more like himself caused a great deal of inner conflict for her.

64. Susan Laird / TEACHING IN A DIFFERENT SENSE: ALCOTT'S MARMEE
    Academic essay by Susan Laird explores education and child-rearing in Alcott s Little Women.

    Extractions: Little Women GW LW LW LW LW LW LW But Marmee obviously also aims for their learning LW LW teaching BRINGING MARMEE INTO EDUCATIONAL THOUGHT However anomalous our field may make my claim that Marmee teaches her daughters, the claim does have noteworthy precedents in educational thought. In Reclaiming a Conversation books and academic journals in our field have not addressed such non-standard, but common-sense teaching claims either critically or constructively. She read Pestalozzi, and her husband, the Transcendentalist Bronson Alcott, wrote about Pestalozzi, even considering himself a disciple of that now almost forgotten philosopher of education. Bronson also wrote ponderous treatises idealizing Socrates and Jesus as teachers, and worked with Elizabeth Peabody and Margaret Fuller on an experimental effort at inter-racial co-education for children in Boston. More than just a source of evidence that maternal thought exists

Haven't you learnt things about the Victorian lifestyle after reading this book? It's amazing the number of things you can understand by reading An old-fashioned girl. The characters are very interesting, and Tom Shaw is probably one of the best male characters Alcott has ever portrayed (even when they are usually similar in all her novels), what do you think?

    Extractions: "If someone does not propose a new and interesting amusement, I shall die of ennui!" said pretty Belle Daventry, in a tone of despair. "I have read all my books, used up all my Berlin wools, and it's too warm to go to town for more. No one can go sailing yet, as the tide is out; we are all nearly tired to death of cards, croquet, and gossip, so what shall we do to while away this endless afternoon? Dr. Meredith, I command you to invent and propose a new game in five minutes." "To hear is to obey," replied the young man, who lay in the grass at her feet, as he submissively slapped his forehead, and fell a-thinking with all his might. "Time is up now, Doctor," cried Belle, pocketing her watch with a flourish. "Ready to report," answered Meredith, sitting up and producing a little box of tortoiseshell and gold. "How mysterious! What is it? Let me see, first!" And Belle removed the cover, looking like an inquisitive child. "Only bonbons; how stupid! That won't do, sir. We don't want to be fed with sugar-plums. We demand to be amused." "Eat six of these despised bonbons, and you
