Louisa Stuart Costello

LSC began work as a contributor to the Athenæum; overall it printed more than twenty articles by her, on a variety of topics.

Hannah Cowley

The St James's Chronicle printed HC 's letter defending herself from the charge of plagiarism, and claiming that her Albina had been pillaged, before its staging, in both Percy and Fatal Falsehood by Hannah More .
The anecdote of HC crying out That's mine! as she watched a play by More is highly suspect. It dates from Annette Meakin 's somewhat unreliable biography of More, 1911; when repeated, it took a slightly different form.

GC also published shorter fiction in a number of journals. This included Alwyn's First Wife for Fraser's Magazine in 1855, A Sketch of Two Homes and the sensational tale My Sister's Husband in 1857 for the Dublin University Magazine. Her article Charlotte Brontë's Birth-Place for the Canadian Monthly and National Review, 1876, recounts GC 's trip to Haworth, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, made after reading Elizabeth Gaskell 's The Life of Charlotte Brontë.

Overall, in fact, little survives, though she included The Maid of Enterkin in her first novel, and George Neilson (a descendant of her family) published some of her pieces in 1919 in the Glasgow Herald, two of them addressed to Robert Riddell . Some of her poetry reflects in subject-matter and sentimental tone the popularity of Goethe 's Werter. She wrote poems on several high-profile suicides and murders of the 1770s and 80s.

One of these was the shooting of Martha Ray outside a London theatre on 4 April 1779 by James Hackman , who at his trial testified that the will to destroy her who was ever dearer to me than life, was never mine till a momentary phrensy overcame me, and induced me to commit the deed I now deplore.

Another was the double suicide of the parent-crossed lovers Gian Faldoni and Theresa Mosnier (about whom Edward Jerningham also wrote a poem, Faldoni and Teresa, 1773, with a line from Pope 's Eloïsa to Abelard on its title-page).

Victoria Cross

Neither work was published entire at this time, although Henry Harland , editor of The Yellow Book, was glowing in his praise of them. Instead, VC 's first publication consisted of solely chapter three of The Refiner's Fire, which appeared in The Yellow Book as Theodora: A Fragment. The Refiner's Fire eventually appeared as Six Chapters of a Man's Life in 1903, and Different Views, minus its title, formed part of the collection Six Women in 1906.

Charlotte Dacre

Her preface claims she is twenty-three, and now for the first time publishing poems which lack the excuse of extreme youth. She reprints most of her published poems and adds some recent ones from newspapers and from The Fatal Secret, 1801. She coyly mentions many more teenage pieces which she will not presume to intrude . . . upon the liberality of my readers.

Ethel M. Dell

Her first acceptances came from romantic magazines. On the matter of business terms, however, she was hard-headed. She declined to publish with F. V. White and Co. because I did not consider their terms sufficiently tempting, and put her work instead into the hands of Pinker and Co. literary agents. Later, during her years of productivity, her agent was the firm of A. P. Watt ; this firm was adept at concealing her identity and preserving her privacy.

Her first essay, published around 1874 in the same Magazine, was a discussion of the French author Leconte de Lisle .

Maria Edgeworth

In the year of publication Charles Pictet translated Practical Education into French for serialisation in the influential periodical Bibliothèque Brittanique, published in Geneva by himself and his brother Marc-Auguste . This began a campaign by the Pictets to give the Edgeworths' educational writings circulation in Europe.

As educational theory moved on, however, the Edgeworths were sometimes set up as an example of the bad old days by those arguing that teaching ought to work less on the child's memory and more on imagination. Samuel Taylor Coleridge pronounced that Practical Education contained very good things, though also some nonsense.

Lady Charlotte Elliot

While LCE published her work primarily in volume form, she occasionally contributed to periodicals. In July 1879 three of her poems appeared in Fraser's Magazine: The Fountains of Love, Unhoped Delight, and In All Labour There is Profit, which last piece uses the work of winemakers to suggest that labourers should in spirit share the joy their work will bring to its recipients in the future, even if that work seems unrewarded in the present.

He followed this with letters to newspapers urging the abolitionist cause, and in early 1788 published four reviews of books on the race question by James Tobin and other defenders of the system of slavery, as well as an address to Parliament (which appeared in some papers as by Gustavus Vasa, but first as by Aethiopianus).

Fanny Fern

The girl who became FF began writing at an early age: her first known literary creation (which still survives) was an essay delivered at a school Exhibition, titled Suggestions on Arithmetic. The essay, which parodies her ineptitude at mathematics, was preserved by a schoolmate.
