In this eagerly anticipated interpretation of the life and work of quintessential 'public intellectual' Jane Addams (1860-1935), Jean Bethke Elshtain explores Addams's legacy thematically and chronologically, recounting her embrace of 'social feminism, ' her challenge to the usual cleavage between 'conservative' and 'liberal, ' and the growth of Chicago's famed Hull House into a thriving cultural and intellectual center. Jane Addams and the Dream of American Democracy is a rich and revealing portrait of one of the most extraordinary figures in American history.
