My mind has been full of confused protests and justifications. In any case I should have found difficulties enough in expressing the complex thing I have to tell, but it has added greatly to my trouble that I have a great analogue, that a certain Niccolo Machiavelli chanced to fall out of politics at very much the age I have reached, and wrote a book to engage the restlessness of his mind, very much as I have wanted to do.

WELLS’S ANN VERONICA AND MAY SINCLAIR’S THE TREE OF HEAVEN Brygida Pudełko Uniwersytet Opolski Opole, Polska [email protected] Key words: H.G. Wells, May Sinclair, suffragette movement, militant suffragettes, feminism The Edwardian writer1 was writing for a steadily growing reading public, the ma- jority of which were, however, still middle-class and the texts they read largely de- scribed the sort of life many were living in middle-class society. Novels dealing with society, social problems and situations – what is often called the “social novel” – were the dominant form. This kind of text varies from the family saga, offering the depiction of a large number of characters over a period of time, to the portrayal of only a very short span of the character’s life. Many writers of the period would, in fact, make use of the novel to enlighten the public about contemporary life, and for this purpose the amplitude of form was useful. There were a range of negative repre- sentations of suffragists written by both men and women writers and, equally, there was suffrage fiction that endorsed the cause for the reading public.

AFTER ANN VERONICA: the ENIGMA of 'LITTLE E': FACT OR FICTION? Jennifer Walker Wells Presented His Love Affair with the Auth
AFTER ANN VERONICA: THE ENIGMA OF ‘LITTLE E’: FACT OR FICTION? Jennifer Walker Wells presented his love affair with the author known as Elizabeth von Arnim as ‘The Episode of Little e’.1 It was a good title, and it made a good story. His account was written in the 1930s and formed one of a series of essays written as a postscript to his Experiment in Autobiography.2 These revelations about his relationships with women and his sexual nature were deemed too sensitive for publication in his lifetime. Edited by his son, G. P. Wells, they eventually appeared under his title of H. G. Wells in Love (1984). By this time, the women concerned were no longer in a position tell their own versions, which may have been very different. ‘The Episode of Little e’ reveals more about Wells, his character and his creative impulse than about Elizabeth herself, or even his relationship with her.3 Diminutive though she may have been in stature, Elizabeth could never be considered as ‘little’ in personality or intellectual ability. By referring to her diaries, letters and known biographical details another picture begins to emerge, one which sheds light on Wells’s writing and his personality. Elizabeth met Wells in 1907 at the Lyceum Club in London, a couple of years before the publication of Ann Veronica.4 At the time of their first meeting, Elizabeth’s looks belied her age. She and Wells were exact contemporaries, both forty-one years old. She was petite, cultured and intelligent, and despite being the mother of five children, was still youthful in appearance, attractive and vivacious.

This highly ephemeral Chicago publication at times carried the alternate titles of Carl Pretzel’s Weekly or Carl Pretzel’s Illustrated Weekly.

Sorenson 1 Kacey Sorenson Professor Watts English 376: British Literature 1900-1950 18 April 2019 HG Wells’ Anticipations: More “Perishable” Feminism In researching H.G. Wells’ evolving views on eugenics, race, anti-Semitism, and women, there was a noticeable absence of scholars referring to his last chapter of Anticipations of the Reaction of Mechanical and Scientific Progress upon Human Life and Thought. Regardless of why it has been overlooked, the aim of this study is to use the last chapter of Anticipations specifically to emphasize and confirm what feminist scholars have extracted as Wells’ view of women: what he proudly owned as feminism was dismissed by his contemporaries as “very perishable” (Kirchwey 308). 120 years after Wells’ birth and forty after his death, The New York Times published a 1986 article entitled “H.G. Wells: Socialist, Feminist, Polymath, Educator and Hero.” Its author triumphantly declared that Wells “played a marvelous role in the opening out of modern feminism,” claiming “he was a feminist in his own time, a leader in the cause of women's rights, and he was accepted as such by most of the women he knew and, in fact, by those with whom he went to bed” (Smith).

The Wells Circle
The Wells Circle Arnim, Elizabeth von (1866-1941), novelist. Chiefly remembered today for Elizabeth and her German Garden (1898), she met HGW in late 1910 and began an affair with him which continued until 1912. His nickname for her was 'Little e'. In 1916 she married John Francis Russell, brother of Bertrand Russell, and continued to write novels, including Vera (1921) and The En chanted April (1923). She is portrayed as 'Mrs Harrowdean' in HGW' s novel Mr Britling Sees It Through. Bagnold, Enid (1889-1981 ), novelist and playwright. She and HGW met in 1916 and began a lifelong friendship. She served as a nurse in the First World War and wrote an account of her experiences, Diary Without Dates (1917). Her most well known work is the novel National Velvet (1935). Barrie, Sir James Matthew (1860-1937), novelist and playwright. The author of a number of successful novels, including A Window in Thrums, Margaret Ogilvy and Sentimental Tommy, Barrie met HGW in 1898 and the two began a lifelong friendship. It was Barrie's When a Man's Single (1888) which provided HGW with the inspiration to write articles on everyday topics instead of philosophical ideas and thus helped to launch him on his lit erary career (cf. Experiment in Autobiography, pp. 371-4). Baxter, William (1860-1934), local historian. HGW and Baxter's wife were fellow pupils at Mrs Knott's dame school in Bromley. Baxter later became a respected local historian, writing numerous articles on Bromley. He wrote a 32-page manuscript on HGW, now deposited at Bromley Library, and frequently wrote to HGW requesting biographical information.

Founding the World State: HG Wells on Empire and the English
Founding the World State: H. G. Wells on Empire and the English- Speaking Peoples Introduction Celebrated as a genius by many, dismissed as a monomaniacal crank by others, H. G. Wells (1866-1946) was once hard to ignore. Most famous today as one of the founders of modern science fiction, during the first half of the twentieth century he was known throughout the world as an audacious and controversial political thinker. Questions of global order were central to his work. From the opening decade of the century until the close of the Second World War he campaigned tirelessly for the eradication of the system of sovereign states and the creation of a new order, characterised by universal peace and justice. He was the twentieth century’s most prolific, original and influential advocate of the world-state. While omnipresent before the Second World War, Wells’s star waned rapidly. Even as millions continued to marvel at his “scientific romances,” his political writings were largely forgotten. The evolving discipline of International Relations (IR), fighting for credibility in the rapid post-war expansion of the social sciences, and shaped by the power dynamics of the Cold War, had little time for such a protean writer. There have been exceptions to this general rule. In 1950, for example, the eminent strategist Edward Mead Earle published an acute analysis of Wells’s political thinking. He was, Mead wrote in the pages of World Politics, a “mercurial and versatile genius” who had “exercised an almost unique influence on the generation which reached maturity during the decade 1910-20” (1950, 181, 185).
