To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


It appears there were " worldlings " in Boston in those days and that they held Mr. Alcott in as much honour " as the worldlings of ancient Athens did Socrates." It " made them smile " to hear their verdict confirmed by Miss Martineau from the other side of the Atlantic : hence the vigour of speech in the letter condemning her book. Mr.
Alcott appears to have had his own troubles.
There was a serious proposition to prosecute him for blasphemy, and on the appearance of his book, " Conversations
...on the Gospels," a professor of Harvard is quoted as affirming that one third of it was absurd, one third blasphemous, and one third obscene. In a very short time this famous school contained only five pupils — three of them Mr.
Alcott's daughters, a colored child, and one other.
Miss Fuller's labours as a teacher in Boston were at an end, so she went to Providence to teach in Colonel Fuller's school. Her salary was to be a thousand dollars, but there is some question as to whether it was ever paid.
