Autoren-Porträt von Lucy Larcom
Lucy Larcom (1824-1893) was a distinguished 19th-century American poet, teacher, and mill worker. Born in Beverly, Massachusetts, Larcom's life and writings profoundly capture the essence of New England in the era. An industrious figure, she started working in textile mills from the age of 11 following her father's death. Larcom's early exposure to the harsh realities of mill work had a significant impact on her literary undertakings. Her experiences are eloquently recorded in her autobiographical work 'A New England Girlhood, Outlined from Memory' (Beverly, MA), which presents a vivid account not only of her own life but also of the women's labor movement in early industrial America. Her prose is characterized by its clarity, moral earnestness, and an intrinsic commitment to highlighting the roles and rights of women. Larcom's contributions to American literature and culture are further accentuated by her editorial work for 'Our Young Folks,' an influential children's magazine. Her literary style, often reflective and imbued with a strong sense of regionalism, echoes the transcendentalist movement, although she maintained a distinct voice. As an educator, Larcom also left her mark, serving at Wheaton Female Seminary in Norton, Massachusetts, and encouraging generations of young women to pursue intellectual enrichment. Larcom's legacy as a poet, author, and educator endures, reflecting her resilient spirit and dedication to social progress.
