Rebecca Harding Davis

    Rebecca Blaine Harding Davis bola americká autorka a novinárka, považovaná za priekopníčku literárneho realizmu v americkej literatúre. Svojím dielom sa zámerne venovala postaveniu marginalizovaných skupín 19. storočia, vrátane černochov, žien, domorodých Američanov, imigrantov a robotníckej triedy. Svojím písaním sa usilovala o spoločenskú zmenu a poukazovala na ich ťažkosti. Jej vplyvný text z roku 1861 jej rýchlo zaistil postavenie uznávanej autorky a definoval jej literárny odkaz.
