Summary: "Harriet Martineau" by Florence Fenwick Miller is a biographical and critical account written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on the life and contributions of Harriet Martineau, an influential social theorist and writer, as the author weaves together personal anecdotes, historical context, and her literary achievements. The narrative promises to delve into Martineau's early influences, struggles with deafness, personal relationships, and her pioneering role in advocating for women's rights and social justice. At the start of the biography, the author outlines Martineau's background, including her family's Huguenot heritage and her early childhood struggles influenced by a strict upbringing and a series of physical ailments.
