Um. I don't suggest remarrying an abusive partner. She will not change. You even mention physical abuse. Abuse typically and statistically escalates and worsens over time. You got out for a good reason. Stay the course and do not remarry. It would be a HUGE mistake. That's my suggestion. Not sure why you would even consider going back to someone who is abusive. Are you in counseling? Perhaps a therapist would help you at this time.

I can't remember a single instance of a remarriage working out.

PS: I do, however, know several examples of a relationship being saved before divorce.

Have you taken any time away from being contact with her since divorce?

Divorce is a painful process. Time to heal and recover is necessary.

Over time, you may come to realize that pining for what you had dreamed you could have with her was a fallacy. Take time to grieve and be gentle with yourself.

Sounds like you may be in a mental space of being willing to settle for table scraps and breadcrumbs?
Thanks for this!

You divorced her for a reason. She has not made any changes. It has only been ten months. It takes awhile to get over divorce. Give yourself more time. Makes no sense to go back into a bad situation which was miserable enough for you to divorce. The leopard did not change her spots!

No. Your post focuses on what's best for her. No where did you say it would be best for you. Dont sacrifice your happiness for someone else. It will never last.

Ex’s are Ex’s for a reason if it didn’t work the first time it’s very unlikely to work a second go around.
