An eccentric life, wonderfully told. Lady Anne Barnard was a brave traveller, artist and observer. Stephen Taylor brings her brilliantly out of the shadows. (Stella Tillyard)
An elegant and vivid book which will surely bring its subject the fame she deserves. (Frances Wilson TLS)
An absorbing, eye-opening history that combines equally the personal and the political. The woman herself, you suspect, would have been even more entertaining. (Rosemary Goring Scottish Review of Books)

Poet and musician, artist and hostess, Lady Anne Barnard lived at the heart of Georgian society. High-born yet egalitarian, she travelled to France to observe the Revolution, rejected numerous suitors, and lived independently. Her curious ways attracted gossip right into her final years when she raised an illegitimate child at her home in Berkeley Square. Written with full access to her previously unseen private papers and unpublished memoirs, Defiance shows Lady Anne to be one of the unheralded chroniclers and pioneering women of her time.

Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Lady Anne Barnard lived at the heart of Georgian society, yet was never fully part of it. The Prince of Wales counted among many friends and she was brilliant in company. But she was seen as an eccentric - an outsider.What defined this poet and musician, artist and hostess, was defiance of convention. High-born yet an egalitarian, she rejected numerous suitors, lived independently by buying and renting houses and travelled alone to observe the French Revolution. When she did marry it was to a junior army officer, 12 younger than she, and together they withdrew to Africa. Her curious ways attracted gossip right to her final years when she raised a mysterious dark-skinned child at her home in Berkeley Square.Anne Barnard's verse was celebrated by Walter Scott but she was also a brilliant and indefatigable diarist. Stephen Taylor has been given access to her private papers, notably six volumes of memoirs which have never been published and which show her to be one of the unheralded chroniclers of her time. This daring yet sensitive woman brought insights to the Georgian age that speak to the modern reader. A new biography of the charismatic Georgian society hostess Lady Anne Barnard, who became defined by her defiance of convention. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9780571311125
