EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the intellectual and spiritual depth of Hannah More (1745-1833), a prolific writer and dedicated teacher, whose works primarily focused on religious themes. More was a pivotal figure in 18th-century British literature and society, leaving an indelible mark on history through her profound influence on her contemporaries and her enduring literary legacy. Born in Bristol, More's passion for learning and teaching began at a young age. She became a close friend and confidante of Samuel Johnson, the renowned literary figure, and Horace Walpole, the famous writer and antiquarian. Her most famous work, "Coelebs in Search of a Wife," showcased her unique blend of wit, morality, and social commentary, making it a beloved classic of the time. More's commitment to education led her to establish a school for girls in her hometown, where she taught and inspired countless young women. Her educational philosophy emphasized the importance of moral values and practical skills, shaping the minds of future generations. This evocative image of More, with her piercing gaze and thoughtful expression, serves as a testament to her remarkable intellect and unwavering dedication to her craft. Her influence extended far beyond her own time, as her works continue to resonate with readers and scholars alike, making her a true icon of the literary world.
