Eliza Calvert Hall, geborene Lida Obenchain, war eine amerikanische Autorin, deren Werke die Komplexität von Frauenbeziehungen und die Herausforderungen ihrer Zeit untersuchten. Durch ihre beliebte Figur „Tante Jane“, eine ältere Witwe, die offen ihre Erfahrungen im ländlichen Süden teilt, webte Hall Bilder und Symbolik aus häuslichen Künsten wie Nähen, Kochen und Gärtnern. Ihre Erzählungen spiegeln oft ihr Eintreten für die Stärkung der Frauen wider und stellen sich eine Zukunft vor, in der der wachsende Selbstrespekt der Frauen eine fortschrittlichere Zivilisation für alle fördern würde. Obenchain war eine leidenschaftliche Verfechterin des Frauenwahlrechts und breiterer Frauenrechte, die an die transformative Kraft weiblicher Selbstbestimmung glaubte.
