EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the intellectual and spiritual depth of Hannah More (nee Clint), a prolific writer and dedicated teacher, born in 1745 in Bristol, England. More is best known for her religious works, particularly her novel "Coelebs in Search of a Wife," which explored the themes of morality, virtue, and the importance of marriage in the lives of its characters. More's literary career began in the late 18th century, a time when she was also deeply involved in literary circles, counting among her friends the renowned writer and wit Samuel Johnson and the Gothic novelist Horace Walpole. Her literary contributions extended beyond fiction, as she also wrote and published numerous poems, essays, and translations. More's commitment to education was equally significant, and she established several schools for girls in Bristol and London, providing opportunities for young women to receive a quality education and gain the skills necessary for a fulfilling life. Her influence on education and literature extended far beyond her own time, and her works continue to be studied and admired today. This portrait, taken likely in the late 18th or early 19th century, offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman whose contributions to literature and education continue to inspire and enrich our understanding of the historical context in which she lived. Hannah More passed away in 1833, leaving behind a rich literary legacy and a lasting impact on the lives of countless individuals.
