A child of both the French and Industrial revolutions, Flora Tristan (1803-1844) became a bold social critic and political activist. Assuming personal freedoms enjoyed by few women contemporaries, she devoted herself to the cause of universal justice. Europe was engulfed in liberation movements during the early decades of the nineteenth century, and it was in this cauldron that Tristan wrote and proselytized. The works selected and translated by Doris and Paul Beik reflect the experiences that shaped Tristan's politics and philosophy, and their introduction and headnotes trace Tristan's life and describe the social and intellectual milieu of nineteenth-century France. Several pieces are here translated into English for the first time. Included are excerpts from "Women Travelers" (1835), "Peregrinations of a Pariah" (1838), the novel "M phis" (1838), "Promenades in London" (1840), "Workers' Union" (1843), and "The Tour of France" (posthumously published in 1973), which chronicles her strenuous efforts to organize members of the French working class.
