Charlotte Perkins Gilman (Hartford, 3 luglio 1860 – Pasadena, 17 agosto 1935) economista, sociologa, scrittrice e poetessa statunitense, e un'importante femminista utopista. Per le sue idee e il suo stile di vita non convenzionali, è diventata un modello per le future generazioni femministe. La sua opera maggiormente conosciuta oggi è La carta da parati gialla (The Yellow Wallpaper, 1890), un racconto semi-autobiografico che scrisse dopo un duro periodo di depressione post-partum. Il suo saggio Women and Economics: a Study of the Economic Relationship Between Men and Women as a Factor in Social Evolution (1898), tradotto una sola volta in italiano nel 1902 da Carolina Pironti, con un'introduzione di Vernon Lee, col titolo La donna e l'economia sociale: studio sulle relazioni economiche tra uomini e donne come fattore di evoluzione sociale (Moschini, 2007), tradotto al tempo in sette lingue e continuamente riedito, è considerato uno dei testi fondamentali sull'origine della questione femminile e sulle relazioni economiche e sociali tra i sessi, che hanno determinato l'assegnazione sociale ad uomini e donne di ruoli e attività in base al sesso (Scott, 1985). .
