Stanton, Elizabeth Cady. Solitude of Self. Ashfield, MA: Paris Press, 2001.
Originally delivered as a speech in 1892, Solitude of Self articulates Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s vision of individual autonomy and feminist selfhood. Paris Press republished the address as a standalone volume over a century later, framing it with a contemporary introduction by Jan Freeman and an afterword by historian Kathi Kern. This edition reflects the press’s mission to recover and recontextualize overlooked works by women, giving renewed prominence to a foundational feminist text.

Dickinson, Emily. Open Me Carefully: Emily Dickinson’s Intimate Letters to Susan Huntington Dickinson. Edited by Ellen Louise Hart and Martha Nell Smith. Ashfield, MA: Paris Press, 1998.
This collection highlights the passionate and complex relationship between Emily Dickinson and her sister-in-law Susan. Paris Press’s edition recovers suppressed correspondences, reframing Dickinson’s voice within a queer literary context.

Rukeyser, Muriel. The Life of Poetry. Ashfield, MA: Paris Press, 1996.
First published in 1949, Rukeyser’s landmark work argues for poetry’s essential role in democratic life. Paris Press’s reissue revitalizes her call for poetic engagement, with new notes contextualizing her literary and political impact.

Bryher. The Heart to Artemis: A Writer’s Memoirs. Ashfield, MA: Paris Press, 2000 (originally 1962).
In this memoir, Bryher recounts her life as a modernist writer, lesbian, and supporter of refugees and avant-garde art. Paris Press’s reprint revives a vital firsthand account of queer literary modernism often left out of mainstream narratives.
