  • The Life and Letters of William Sharp and “Fiona Macleod”
    The Life and Letters of William Sharp and “Fiona Macleod” Volume 2: 1895-1899 W The Life and Letters of ILLIAM WILLIAM F. HALLORAN William Sharp and What an achievement! It is a major work. The lett ers taken together with the excellent H F. introductory secti ons - so balanced and judicious and informati ve - what emerges is an amazing picture of William Sharp the man and the writer which explores just how “Fiona Macleod” fascinati ng a fi gure he is. Clearly a major reassessment is due and this book could make it ALLORAN happen. Volume 2: 1895-1899 —Andrew Hook, Emeritus Bradley Professor of English and American Literature, Glasgow University William Sharp (1855-1905) conducted one of the most audacious literary decep� ons of his or any � me. Sharp was a Sco� sh poet, novelist, biographer and editor who in 1893 began The Life and Letters of William Sharp to write cri� cally and commercially successful books under the name Fiona Macleod. This was far more than just a pseudonym: he corresponded as Macleod, enlis� ng his sister to provide the handwri� ng and address, and for more than a decade “Fiona Macleod” duped not only the general public but such literary luminaries as William Butler Yeats and, in America, E. C. Stedman. and “Fiona Macleod” Sharp wrote “I feel another self within me now more than ever; it is as if I were possessed by a spirit who must speak out”. This three-volume collec� on brings together Sharp’s own correspondence – a fascina� ng trove in its own right, by a Victorian man of le� ers who was on in� mate terms with writers including Dante Gabriel Rosse� , Walter Pater, and George Meredith – and the Fiona Macleod le� ers, which bring to life Sharp’s intriguing “second self”.

All rights reserved. Drawing of John Cowper Powys by Ivan Opffer, 1920 MELVON L. ANKENY Lloyd Emerson Siberell, Powys 'Bibliomaniac' and 'Extravagantic' John Cowper Powys referred to him as 'a "character", if you catch my meaning, this good Emerson Lloyd S. — a very resolute chap (with a grand job in a big office) & a swarthy black- haired black-coated Connoisseur air, as a Missioner of a guileless culture, but I fancy no fool in his office or in the bosom of his family!'1 and would later describe him as 'a grand stand-by & yet what an Extravagantic on his own our great Siberell is for now and for always!'2 Lloyd Emerson Siberell, the 'Extravagantic' from the midwestern United States, had a lifelong fascination and enthusiasm for the Powys family and in pursuit of his avocations as magazine editor, publisher, writer, critic, literary agent, collector, and corresponding friend was a constant voice championing the Powys cause for over thirty years. Sometimes over-zealous, always persistent, unfailingly solicitous, both utilized and ignored, he served the family faithfully as an American champion of their art. He was born on 18 September 1905 and spent his early years in the small town of Kingston, Ohio; 'a wide place in the road, on the fringe of the beautiful Pickaway plains the heart of Ohio's farming region, at the back door of the country, so to speak.' In his high school days he 'was always too busy reading the books [he] liked and playing truant to ever study seriously...' He 'enjoyed life' and was 'a voracious reader but conversely not the bookworm type of man.'3 At seventeen he left school and worked a year at the Mead Corporation paper mill in Chillicothe, Ohio and from this experience he dated his interest in the art and craft of paper and paper making.

Olive Custance, Nostalgia, and Decadent Conservatism Sarah Parker Loughborough University Olive Custance was one of the most prolific women poets published in The Yellow Book, with poems appearing in eight of its thirteen volumes.1 She is also mentioned in several studies of the fin de siècle; as her 1972 bibliographer Nancy J. Hawkey states: ‘her name is invariably included in contemporary lists of representative poets’ of the 1890s.2 For example, in 1925, Richard Le Gallienne fondly recalled her ‘flower-like girlish loveliness’ at John Lane’s teas and includes her in a list of prominent ‘minor poets’ of the period.3 In The Eighteen Nineties (1913), Holbrook Jackson groups her among ‘those poets who give expression to moods more attuned to end-of- the-century emotions’.4 This fosters the impression that Custance did not continue writing beyond the fin de siècle. Modern critics perpetuate this notion, observing her apparent poetic silence following her final volume, The Inn of Dreams (1911), which itself consisted largely of reprints from The Blue Bird (1905).5 However, Custance in fact continued publishing long after 1911, producing work throughout the 1920s, 30s and 40s, until her death in 1944.

  • On Fables by T.F. Powys
    Editorial Afon Dyfrdwy on the front cover is the editor’s idea of a ‘Cymric Space’. Two other spaces are featured in this edition - the abbey ruins at Valle Crucis where JCP stayed with his son in the 1940s (perhaps the Real Glastonbury? as the Llangollen tourist leaflet claims); and the 14-plus books that were born from JCP’s imagination during the twenty years (1935-55) he lived at Corwen, with some reactions to them over the years. Between these comes a wide-ranging essay on the ‘fables’ ofTheodore Powys, with an account of the very enjoyable meeting to discuss them that was held at Dorchester Museum in June. Llewelyn is represented by news of Wessex Memories, the Society’s new publication which will be ready in August (see order form). An enthusiastic preview of Llangollen and the Hand Hotel was in last autum n’s Newsletter (no 47, page 6). Details of the Conference are enclosed with this one. Apart from the lift, all reports on the hotel and the surrounding attractions continue very favorable and expectations are high. And the Cymric weather — Cimmerian, or as below? We shall see. Corwen, Saturday 29th August 1936. Another Perfect Day. The weather is really Astonishing. Day after Day without a cloud! ... I was so struck by the beauty of the Ling — & by the autumn Gorge & the red berries of the Mountain Ash ... & the yellow gorze ... Took Old to the Meeting of the Rivers — Stood for a very very long time watching the little trout on a promontory of grey pebbles opposite that deep hole at the meeting of the waters where the Big-salmon lives & I saw Llangar Church reflected in the water ..

  • Read These Fragments of an Autobiography
    Fragments of an Autobiography1 Edward Hutton2 I was born the eldest of seven children on April 12th 1875, a Victorian, at Castlebar, Ealing, an eight months child and so small that the story is that I was put in a cigar box, christened in a hand basin and given the name of Edward which he particularly disliked because my Father thought I could not possibly live. I can remember nothing of the house except the tallow crocuses in the front drive and the big dead tree over the wall that made me afraid; for before I was four years old my father took a house at Hampstead for the sake of the Heath for his children, 7 Heathfield Gardens later 13 Cannon Place opposite the vicarage of Christ Church, where the Rev. E.H. Bickersteth was vicar. He was to become a great friend of my Father and Mother. My Father James Edward Hutton was born in Sheffield January 24 1838. He and his younger brother Herbert were partners in the family business William Hutton and sons Manufacturing Silversmiths, Platers and Cutlers of London, Sheffield and Birmingham founded by my great grandfather William Hutton. My Father married my Mother, his second wife, in 1874 at St. Mary’s Church in Bridgewater Somerset where she was born, christened, confirmed and married. When I was seven years old I was put to school at Mrs. Coghlan’s in Thurloe Road, Rosslyn Hill and was soon joined by my younger brother Robert. Our nurses delivered us at the school and fetched us away.
