  • Some Documents Relating to Lord Byron's Finances During 1812-18
    1 Some documents relating to Lord Byron’s Finances during 1812-18 1: Byron’s Bank Account with Hoare and Company, 37 Fleet Street 2: Financial material in the John Murray Archive relative to the account with Hoare’s 3: Byron’s account with Hammersley’s Bank, Pall Mall 1: Byron’s Bank Account with Hoare and Company, 37 Fleet Street This is as full an edition of Byron’s first-line bank account during his Years of Fame (1812 - 1816) as I have been able to construct. He had another account with Hammersley’s, for which see below. I think I have been able to identify most of the people and organisations named on the left-hand, debit side of the ledgers. If anyone disagrees with any of my attributions, or has a different interpretation, I should like to hear from them. Hoares date the foundation of their bank from July 5th 1672, when Richard Hoare was granted the Freedom of the Goldsmiths’ Company. In 1673 he took over the goldsmith’s business of his deceased master, and moved it in 1690 to 37 Fleet Street at the Sign of the Golden Bottle, where the bank’s premises have been ever since. All partners in the Bank have been his direct descendants. Hoare was knighted by Queen Anne, and was Lord Mayor of London in 1712. The Bank skilfully avoided disaster when the South Sea Bubble burst in 1721, and Sir Richard’s younger son, also named Richard, was knighted as a reward for his peacekeeping services during the Jacobite uprising of 1745.

Like other lake poets, William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Southee began as a radical but became steadily more conservative as he gained respect for Britain and its institutions. Other romantics, notably Byron, accused him of siding with the institution for money and status. He is remembered as the author of the poem After Blenheim and the original version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

  • London, April 26Th–July 30Th 1816 84
    84 London, April 26th–July 30th 1816 Mid-1816 April 26th-July 30th 1816 Edited from BL Add. Mss. 47232 and 56536 There is much variety and interest in this section of the diary, which covers the time between Byron’s departure for the continent on April 25th 1816 and that of Hobhouse on July 30th (for which he is already preparing on June 5th). The events chronicled should climax in Sheridan’s funeral, on July 13th; but that is an anti-climactic affair. They might have climaxed with a successful romantic assignation on June 24th, but Hobhouse is as luckless and inept here as ever he is. The high-point would be Miss Somerville’s delivery of his prologue to Maturin’s Bertram , at Drury Lane on May 9th, if only that were something of which he felt proud. For the rest, Hobhouse is throughout anxious over the sale of his Letters from Paris , a work, it seems, much-praised but little purchased. The success of Caroline Lamb’s shameless Glenarvon , published on May 9th and into its second edition by late June, does his ego no good. His reading in Mungo Park, and the tales of the war with the Nepalese, and of Napoleon, which his brother Henry brings from his travels, add an incidental exotic interest; and there are vivid glimpses of Coleridge, Sebastiani, Kean, Benjamin Constant, and others. Hobhouse’s exit from the country is effected in a very strange and disturbing manner. Friday April 26th 1816: Did little or nothing in the morning. Met Bainbridge, 1 who told me that Cuthbert 2 had told him that he defended Lord Byron, as having separated only on common causes, when Lord Auckland 3 said, “I beg your pardon – Brougham has told me it is something ‘too horrid to mention’”.

  • ABSTRACT Genius, Heredity, and Family Dynamics. Samuel Taylor Coleridge and His Children: a Literary Biography Yolanda J. Gonz
    ABSTRACT Genius, Heredity, and Family Dynamics. Samuel Taylor Coleridge and his Children: A Literary Biography Yolanda J. Gonzalez, Ph.D. Chairperson: Stephen Prickett, Ph.D. The children of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Hartley, Derwent, and Sara, have received limited scholarly attention, though all were important nineteenth century figures. Lack of scholarly attention on them can be blamed on their father, who has so overshadowed his children that their value has been relegated to what they can reveal about him, the literary genius. Scholars who have studied the children for these purposes all assume familial ties justify their basic premise, that Coleridge can be understood by examining the children he raised. But in this case, the assumption is false; Coleridge had little interaction with his children overall, and the task of raising them was left to their mother, Sara, her sister Edith, and Edith’s husband, Robert Southey. While studies of S. T. C.’s children that seek to provide information about him are fruitless, more productive scholarly work can be done examining the lives and contributions of Hartley, Derwent, and Sara to their age. This dissertation is a starting point for reinvestigating Coleridge’s children and analyzes their life and work. Taken out from under the shadow of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, we find that Hartley was not doomed to be a “child of romanticism” as a result of his father’s experimental approach to his education; rather, he chose this persona for himself. Conversely, Derwent is the black sheep of the family and consciously chooses not to undertake the family profession, writing poetry.
