Perihal pengarang
Louisa May Alcott (1832–1888) stands out as one of the most prominent authors of the American literary scene during the late 19th century. Coming from a family deeply immersed in transcendentalist ideology, her upbringing by her parents Amos Bronson Alcott and Abigail May was suffused with progressive educational and social ideals. Alcott began her writing career under various pseudonyms but eventually found fame with her semi-autobiographical novel 'Little Women' in 1868, which reflected the lived experiences of Alcott and her three sisters. Alongside her opus, 'Little Women,' and its sequels, Alcott penned a plethora of works, among which includes 'Aunt Jo's Scrap Bag' (1872-1882), a collection of short stories initially serialized that captures Alcott's dexterity in storytelling and her capacity to engage with domestic narratives imbued with moral undertones. Alcott's literary style weaves together the fabric of realism with threads of sentimentalism and didacticism, often reflecting her own convictions about female independence, the abolition of slavery, and educational reform. Despite her portrayal of conventional domestic roles for women, her work consistently nuditched female readers to consider their broader social and intellectual potentials. Alcott never married, dedicating her life to her craft and her family. She remains a literary figure of significant impact, with her works continuing to resonate with readers and scholars alike, well into the modern era.
