Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Elizabeth Barrett Browning´s Poetical Works, Vol. 1 of 5 In a recent "Memoir of Elizabeth Barrett Browning," by John H. Ingram, it is observed that "such essays on her personal history as have appeared, either in England or elsewhere, are replete with mistakes or misstatements." For these he proposes to substitute "a correct if short memoir:" but, kindly and appreciative as may be Mr. Ingram´s performance, there occur not a few passages in it equally "mistaken and misstated." 1. "Elizabeth, the eldest daughter of Edward Moulton Barrett, was born in London on the 4th of March, 1809." The eldest daughter died in childhood. Elizabeth was born, March 6, 1806, at Coxhoe Hall, West Durham, the residence of her father´s brother. "Before she was eleven she composed an epic on ´Marathon."´ She was then fourteen. The entry in the Parish Register is as follows: - Elizabeth Barrett, daughter of Edward Barrett Moulton Barrett and Mary his wife, born at Coxhoe Hall, county of Durham, on Thursday, March the sixth, at seven o´clock in the evening, in the year 1806. Privately baptized on Sunday, the 9th of the same month, by the Rev. William Lewis Rham, A. B., Rector of Fersfield, in Norfolk. Publickly baptized on the 11th of February, 1808, at Kelloe Church, in the County of Durham. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
