Book excerpt: Alice Christiana Gertrude Meynell (nee Thompson, 1847-1922) was a British writer, editor, critic, and suffragist, now best remembered as a poet. She was born in Barnes, London, but was brought up mainly in Italy and, whilst recuperating from one of her frequent illnesses, converted to the Catholic faith. Her first volume of poetry, Preludes, was published in 1875, illustrated by her sister Elizabeth (the artist Lady ELizabeth Butler 1846-1933), and whilst it received little public notice was warmly priased by Ruskin. In 1877 Alice married Wilfrid Meynell, a Catholic newspaper editor who had admired her poems on religious subjects. The couple settled in Kensington, became proprietors of magazines including The Pen and the Weekly Register, and went on to have eight children. Alice was one of the early founders of the Catholic women's organization, Catholic Women's Suffrage Society, in support of peaceful means for the achievement of equal suffrage rights for women, and she established and wrote for its newpaper The Catholic Suffragist. She was also vice-president of the Women Writers' Suffrage League. She was a regular contributor to numerous journals such as The Spectator, the Pall Mall Gazette and The Saturday Review, edited many volumes of poetry and published further volumes of her own poems, being twice considered for the role of Poet Laureate. Her later poems show her feminist concerns as well as her reactions to the events of the First World War. This complete collection of Alice Meynell's poems is reprinted from the McClelland and Stewart Canadian edition of 1923 and includes a portrait of the author reproduced from a drawing by John Singer Sargent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catholic convert and women of letters Alice Meynell (1847–1922) ranks as a sophisticated essayist and poet of the late Victorian period and the early twentieth century. She had the advantage of an educated father and a musical mother who spent much of their early time with the family visiting Europe, especially Italy. Alice’s father was a friend of Dickens and her mother was admired by Dickens. Alice and her sister Elizabeth, later the famed artist Lady Butler, were educated privately and more so by their travels. This background gave Alice a great interest in art, music, poetry and literature. Her conversion to Catholicism in 1868 was the rock of her existence and coloured her entire life. Alice and her convert husband Wilfrid were very involved in the journalistic world as she was a contributor to the Scots / National Observer, Dublin Review, Tablet, Athenaeum, Speaker, Spectator, and the Magazine of Art. Alice was also an important unsigned contributor to the Pall Mall Gazette ‘Wares of Autolycus’ column for many years. Together Wilfrid and Alice edited and wrote for their own illustrated monthly Merry England from 1883–95. Contributors included Alice’s close friend Katharine Tynan, Coventry Patmore, Andrew Lang, and Francis Thompson, whose “The Hound of Heaven” was first published by them. They also managed the Weekly Register from 1881–98. The two journals kept Alice very busy as did her large family. Alice’s letters show her literary work, both poetry and essays, and her relationship with John Lane, who published many of her books, an arrangement not always easy. She discusses her work with poets such as John Freeman and John Drinkwater, and her admiration for Coventry Patmore with the writer Frederick Page. She was obviously considered important for aspiring and established poets who sought her approbation. She visited America in late 1901 for a short lecture tour which was fairly successful but also gave her some lifelong friends. She supported women’s suffrage and marched, although she was against its militancy. Alice was ambivalent about the First World War and her final years were spent writing and editing anthologies.
