Sophia King

For publishing poems in newspapers, SK used the pseudonym Sappho.

Sophia Lee

The Recess is dedicated to Sir John Eliot, Elliot, or Elliott , a Scottish physician who was successful and popular in London. (His wife, Grace, née Dalrymple , had left him for another man, and later achieved fame or notoriety as a courtesan memoirist of the French Revolution.) In twenty years the novel went through five English and two Irish editions. It was translated into German (as Die Ruinen, Leipzig 1786, Prague 1788), Swedish, Spanish, and Portuguese.

One of its two French translations was translated back into English as The Cavern; or, The Two Sisters, 1809. This did not end the flow of editions, or condensations in magazines.

Anne Lister

Even before this volume, a few of her letters had reached the public: M. E. Kendall had published some passages from 1802, 1803, and 1815 in the Transactions of the Halifax Antiquarian Society in 1950.

Liz Lochhead

This volume was dedicated to the memory of Tarık Okyay , LL 's partner who died of cancer three years earlier. Edwin Morgan , for whom Lochhead wrote The People's Poet, provided a foreword. An edition of 2003 retains the dedication but omits the foreword. Morgan welcomed this substantial and bold, striking collection, emphasised that Lochhead was worth reading as well as listening to, and praised her range of material and confidence of tone which are most impressive.

Many of the poems had appeared in little magazines: a cosmopolitan bunch, including Aquarius, Clanjamfrie, Cracked Looking Glass, Forum Germany, Glasgow Magazine, Poetry Australia, and Toronto Life.

She did research into family history and edited (though she did not herself publish) a collection of the letters between James Logan (her husband's grandfather) and William Penn . She was instrumental in preserving the fascinating letters of Hannah Callowhill Penn , second wife of William, who took on much of his political as well as his domestic and estate management as his health declined. Others had judged these letters too homely for a place in the family record: DNL was alert to the potential of social, material history. This family archive was published in 1870-2.

Catharine Macaulay

The Monthly Review praised her achievement: she had traced events to their origins, and produced accurate rather than flattering portraits of historical figures. Her occasional warmth was warranted by the importance of her subject-matter.

The Critical Review notice opened with a retrospective of this majestic work of history, going back almost twenty years. Its tone was celebratory. CM , it said, never fails to support her criticism of royalist positions with a force of observation which justly entitles her to the applause that is due to ingenuity—that is, to intellect. It noted both her inviolable love of constitutional liberty

and her denial that she was a republican. Its final bouquet of praise is gendered: her work is one of the most signal instances ever known to the literary world, of the extraordinary abilities and persevering exertion of a female writer.

Judith Cowper Madan

Verses written extempore in Mr A[shley] C[owper] 's Coke upon Littleton (the title of a standard legal textbook) by Judith Cowper (later Madan), appeared, to her dismay, in Ambrose Philips 's The Free-Thinker.
Sir Thomas Littleton or Lyttelton , who died in 1581, was the author of the first book of law to be published in England. A massive commentary on this work, made by Sir Edward Coke in 1628 and known as Coke on Littleton, became a standard legal textbook, last reprinted at Washington, DC, in 1903.

Jean Marishall

Marishall then turned to Edinburgh's Canongate Theatre , only to have Foote (who had become manager there in November 1770) waste a whole season promising to put it on soon. In the end, after pressure from Marishall and haggling about revisions (which at one point he offered to make himself) he gave a specific promise, with date, to put it on at the Haymarket (where he was working again from summer 1771). He then stopped answering her letters, and did not respond when she asked for her manuscript back. What reason Mr Foote had for not performing a promise so voluntary, and so positively made, the author cannot pretend to say.

At this point JM 's account reflects her consciousness of the need to tread carefully. She says that she pretends not to make any comments, but will keep strictly to facts both for and against the merit of the performance.

Thrown over by Foote, she published a newspaper statement addressed to the public and Mr Digges (who took over the Canongate lease from Foote in August 1771).

But Digges categorically rejected the play. Having therefore fooled away so much time in useless solicitation, her hopes alternately raised and depressed,

JM turned to subscription. A certain degree of pride led her to publish a version of the play that was all hers, without the various revisions it had picked up in the course of submission and rejection.

Her ten-page subscription list was an impressive one, including James Boswell , his mother Lady Auchinleck , David Hume , and other leaders of Scottish literary and intellectual society. She printed at least one letter in a newspaper puffing the play.

She also, during her period of involvement with the Birmingham Political Union in the 1830s, published journalism in support of Chartism; the future Australian statesman Henry Parkes was impressed by these political writings.

She was fascinated by an article by Sartre on the work of Francis Ponge , which she read in early 1945 in a French magazine called Poesie 44. This inspired her to write an article on Ponge for Horizon, which was later reprinted, in French, in a special Ponge issue of Nouvelle revue française.
