2、n BlakemoreMay 24, 20_Did Sarah Josepha Hale write “Marys Lamb,” the eternal nursery rhyme about a girl named Mary with a stubborn lamb panion? The jury is still outbut its clear that the woman reputed for writing it was one of Americas most fascinating characters。 In honor of the poems publication
3、on May 24, 1830, heres more about the supposed authors life:She was one of Americas most powerful media moguls。Forget Oprahin the 19th century, there was one queen of media, and her name was Sarah Josepha Hale。 She first plunged into national prominence as one of the nations first published women no
4、velists and poets。 Her book Northwood: Or, Life North and South advocated that slaves be relocated to Liberia rather than continue to toil in the U.S。 It attracted the attention of a Boston reverend who invited the recently widowed Hale to edit the Ladies Magazine, a new magazine aimed at fashionabl
5、e women。In 1837, Hales magazine was acquired by Louis Godey, who also owned the popular Ladys Book, and Godeys Ladys Book, the new publication that emerged, quickly became Americas most influential magazine。 At its height, the magazine had over 150,000 subscribers, was widely read by men and women,
6、and featured some of the nations best literary talent, like Edgar Allan Poe and Harriet Beecher Stowe。Known as much for its fashion plates and dress patterns as its uplifting poetry and edifying articles, the magazine was in print for another 70 years。 Hale herself was at its helm for 40enough time
7、to bee the most influential arbiter of fashion, culture and American female taste of her time。 She used her influence not just to tell women what to wear, but how to think。but Hale didnt think women should vote。Was Hale a feminist? The term is so laden with modern meaning that its hard to apply to a
8、 powerful woman like Hale。 But though Hale supported everything from womens education to employment, she though that womens powers were intended to be used subtly。 Not only did she oppose womens suffrage, but she thought that women were better off wielding what she called a “secret, silent influence
9、” on men instead of entering politics on their own。The magazine juggernaut that Hale helmed impressed similar values on women, emphasizing the importance of a separate sphere in which women could reign over domestic issues and affect the behaviors of others through their own deportment。 But though H
10、ales magazine reinforced gender stereotypes, historians have argued that the “separate sphere” it upheld was actually a place where women could e_perience what little power and autonomy was available to them during the 19th century。She fought a fierce battle to make Thanksgiving a national holidayHa
11、le wasnt just a writer: She was also a fierce social advocate。 Born in New Hshire, she was particularly obsessed with an idealized idea of New England, which she associated with abundant Thanksgiving meals that she claimed had “a deep moral influence。” Using the platform provided by Godeys Ladys Boo
12、k, she began a national caign to have a national holiday declared that would bring families together while celebrating the glorious festivals of yore。 No matter that the first Thanksgiving was celebrated by a privileged few in a time of rant starvation and the suppression of Native AmericansHale wan
13、ted her Thanksgiving。 And in 1863, after 17 years of advocacy including letters to five presidents, Hale got it。 President Abraham Lincoln, embroiled in the Civil War, issued a proclamation setting aside the last Thursday in November for the holiday。She once preserved a Boston monument with an epic
14、craft fairThough Hales legacy today revolves around putting turkey and mashed potatoes on tables everywhere, her interests e_tended to other New England icons。 In 1840, Hale organized the mother of all craft fairs at Bostons Quincy Market。 The seven-day fair raised a whopping $30,000 to finish the b
15、uilding of an ornate obelisk to memorate the Battle of Bunker Hill。 Thats the equivalent of fundraising nearly $800,000 today。Her nursery rhyme was inspired by actual eventsThe true authorship of “Marys Little Lamb” is disputed。 According to the New England Historical Society, Hale wrote only part o
16、f the poem, but claimed authorship。 The poem was included in Hales book Poems for our Children, which she intended “to inculcate moral truths and virtuous sentiments” to families and children。Regardless of the author, it seems that the poem was inspired by a real event。 When young Mary Sawyer was followed to school by a lamb in 1816, it caused a motion。 A bystander named John Roulstone wrote a doggerel about the events。 The verse was so popular that eventually Mary sold the lambs wool for a higher price based on its fame。 It earned $60, which was used to help rebuild Bo
