EDITORS COMMENTS
Discovering the Entrance to a Hidden World: Mary Lennox in Frances Hodgson Burnett's 'The Secret Garden' (1911) This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in Frances Hodgson Burnett's beloved children's novel, 'The Secret Garden.' In the photograph, a young Mary Lennox, portrayed by an introspective and determined actress, stands before an ancient door hidden within the overgrown walls of her uncle's estate. The year is 1911, and the publication of this story has recently brought it to the attention of readers worldwide. Mary, having just discovered the door, clutches a book in her hands, her eyes filled with curiosity and excitement. The garden beyond the door represents a world untouched by the harsh realities of her life – a world of beauty, growth, and rebirth. The door serves as a symbol of opportunity and the promise of a new beginning. The intricate details of the door, with its worn wood, weathered hinges, and delicate carvings, add to the allure of the secret garden. The ivy and vines that cover the door frame further emphasize the connection between nature and the garden, as well as the idea of growth and transformation. As Mary turns the key in the lock and pushes the door open, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery and healing. The garden becomes her sanctuary, a place where she can nurture both herself and the neglected plants. This photograph encapsulates the essence of the story, inviting readers to join Mary on her adventure and to explore the magic of 'The Secret Garden.'
