Most Alcott scholars cannot imagine what it would be like to do research without the Selected Letters and Selected Journals of Louisa May Alcott, these two seminal works that make Alcott's work so accessible.
Dr. Daniel Shealy, however, knows exactly what it's like--because he was part of the team that edited these two publications, bringing together hundreds of letters from around the country and compiling them into the legible, useful edition that Alcott scholars depend on for their work. This is the work that has enabled other professors, writers, and filmmakers to shift their perception of Louisa May Alcott, from the famed children's writer to a more serious, scholarly study.
Daniel Shealy shares his experiences working with Joel Myerson, Madeleine Stern, and Leona Rostenberg, giving us a glimpse into the early days of Alcott scholarship. We discuss Louisa's changing legacy over the years, and Daniel even gives his opinion on Little Women films.
Daniel Shealy is Professor of English at the University of North Carolina-Charlotte, where he teaches American literature. He has published thirteen books on Louisa May Alcott, including co-editing Alcott’s Selected Letters and Journals. He also edited Little Women Abroad: The Alcott Sisters’ Letters from Europe, 1870-71, which recounts May Alcott’s first journey to Europe. His most recent book is Little Women at 150.
