Page "Ruth Benedict" Paragraph 11
from
Wikipedia
The summer after her first year teaching at the Orton School she returned home to the Shattuck ’ s farm to spend some time in thought and peace.
That summer Ruth fell deeply in love with Stanley as he began to visit her more, and accepted his proposal for marriage.
Envigorated by love, she undertook several writing projects in order to keep busy besides the everyday housework chores in her new life with Stanley.
She began to publish poems under different pseudonyms — Ruth Stanhope, Edgar Stanhope, and Anne Singleton.
She also began work on writing a biography about Mary Wollstonecraft and other lesser known women that she felt deserved more acknowledgement for their work and contributions.
Stanley suffered an injury that made him want to spend more time away from the city, and Benedict was not happy when the couple moved to Bedford Hills far away from the city.
