Abstract:The attempt to reconstruct the personality and the literary works of Margaret Fuller and Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić shines the spotlight not only on these extraordinary female figures, two strong female voices coming from two distant parts of the world, Margaret as a writer, Transcendentalist, translator, journal editor and contributor; Ivana as the authoress of short stories, poems, a short novel and collections of fairy-tales, but also from a period of time which represents a prolegomenon in the comprehension of female abilities. Both of these distinguished female figures earned significant reputation: Margaret was the first American female foreign correspondent, and Ivana received two nominations for the Nobel Prize for Literature. Both were ahead of their time and ‘’moved’’ the boundaries, both were dedicated to education and writing, and tried whole-heartedly to influence the improvement of the social position of women. The aim of this paper is to point out their vision of (women’s) writing / children’s literature as well as their contribution to education (of women) in general.

Title:Due voice femminili affini – due mondi
Abstract:Il tentativo di ricostruire la personalità e le opere letterarie di Margaret Fuller e Ivana Brlic-Mazuranic illumina non solo queste straordinarie figure femminili, due forti voci femminili provenienti da due lontane parti del mondo, ma anche il periodo che sia nel continente americano che quello europeo rappresenta prolegomeni nella comprensione della capacità delle donne. Margaret Fuller era una scrittrice, trascendentalista, traduttrice, redatrice e collaboratrice della rivista, e Ivana Brlic-Mazuranic era autrice di racconti, poesie, romanzi brevi e raccolte di fiabe. Entrambe queste eminenti figure femminili hanno guadagnato la reputazione significativa: Fuller è stata la prima donna corrispondente americana e Brlic-Mazuranic ha ricevuto due nomination al Premio Nobel per la letteratura. Entrambe erano in anticipo sui tempi e hanno “spinto” i confini, entrambe erano dedicate all’istruzione e alla scrittura e hanno cercato con tutto il cuore di influenzare il miglioramento dello status sociale delle donne. L’obiettivo di questa opera è di sottolineare la loro visione della scrittura femminile / letteratura per i bambini, così come il loro contributo all’istruzione (delle donne) in generale.
