Book excerpt: Hester Lynch Thrale (born Hester Lynch Salusbury and after her second marriage became Hester Lynch Piozzi, 1741-1821) was a British diarist, author and patron of the arts whose diaries and correspondence are an important source of information about Samuel Johnson and eighteenth-century life. The Salusburys were one of the most illustrious Welsh land-owning dynasties of the Georgian era but after her father went bankrupt Hester married rich brewer Henry Thrale with whom she had 12 children. Her husband's financial status allowed her to enter London society where she met many of the literary figures of the day, including Dr Johnson, James Boswell, Oliver Goldsmith and the young Fanny Burney. Mr Thrale died in 1781 and Hester later fell in love with Gabriel Piozzi, an Italian music teacher, whom she married in 1784, returning to live in Wales. This collection of letters to her friend Penelope Pennington (nee Weston) was published in 1914 and includes 30 illustrations.

Book excerpt: This collection consists of letters sent and received by Hester Lynch Piozzi, with a wide variety of correspondents. The letters were collected gradually by Donald and Mary Hyde on the autograph market over a long period of time, and do not constitute a complete archive. 117 different correspondents are represented, with a total of 182 letters: 115 written by Piozzi, and 67 received. The collection includes seven letters to Samuel Johnson, including two versions of the important 1784 June 30 letter informing him of her impending marriage to Gabriel Piozzi, and her final 1784 July 4 letter to Johnson, essentially terminating their long friendship. The collection includes correspondence with other key members of the Johnsonian circle: one letter from Giuseppe Baretti; five letters to James Boswell; four letters to Charles Burney; five letters to Fanny Burney; one letter from Elizabeth Montagu; and one letter from Sir Joshua Reynolds. Many of the other letters also mention Johnson. Several other frequent correspondents are represented in the collection. Included are six letters to Reynold Davies, tutor of her adopted son John Salusbury Piozzi Salusbury; seven letters to the Rev. George Henry Glasse; and eight letters to Penelope Sophia Weston Pennington.

Download or read book Women Writers and Old Age in Great Britain 1750 1850 written by Devoney Looser and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2008-08-01 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking study explores the later lives and late-life writings of more than two dozen British women authors active during the long eighteenth century. Drawing on biographical materials, literary texts, and reception histories, Devoney Looser finds that far from fading into moribund old age, female literary greats such as Anna Letitia Barbauld, Frances Burney, Maria Edgeworth, Catharine Macaulay, Hester Lynch Piozzi, and Jane Porter toiled for decades after they achieved acclaim -- despite seemingly concerted attempts by literary gatekeepers to marginalize their later contributions. Though these remarkable women wrote and published well into old age, Looser sees in their late careers the necessity of choosing among several different paths. These included receding into the background as authors of "classics," adapting to grandmotherly standards of behavior, attempting to reshape masculinized conceptions of aged wisdom, or trying to create entirely new categories for older women writers. In assessing how these writers affected and were affected by the culture in which they lived, and in examining their varied reactions to the prospect of aging, Looser constructs careful portraits of each of her Subjects and explains why many turned toward retrospection in their later works. In illuminating the powerful and often poorly recognized legacy of the British women writers who spurred a marketplace revolution in their earlier years only to find unanticipated barriers to acceptance in later life, Looser opens up new scholarly territory in the burgeoning field of feminist age studies.
