Stanton's success as a writer and orator was necessarily tied in with the political nature of her work. Although she was one of the most famous and influential leaders of the American women's suffrage movement, her revolutionary ideas often set her at odds with fellow activists as well as more conservative opponents. For instance, the National American Woman Suffrage Association, which she founded, turned against her by passing a resolution dissociating itself from The Woman's Bible. As her immediate influence waned and she retired from public life, emphasis was placed more on her importance as a historic figure than on the value of her writings. The resurgence of feminism in the late twentieth century stimulated new scholarly interest in both Stanton's political ideas and her literary products.
