With a lyrical and reflective prose style, Phelps weaves together themes of aesthetic philosophy and moral obligation, challenging conventional notions of femininity and social propriety. This work, situated within the context of the Transcendentalist movement, also reflects the author's engagement with the emerging discourse on women's rights, making it a rich text for understanding the period's evolving social fabric.

Influenced by her upbringing in a family of intellectuals and writers, she became a trailblazer within the literary world, known for her advocacy of social reform and gender equality.
