ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Anna Brownell Jameson (1794-1860) est une écrivaine et féministe britannique. Réputée pour ses essais critiques sur les héroïnes de Shakespeare et l'art chrétien, elle s'illustre aussi par ses récits de voyage, notamment au Canada. Défenseure de l'éducation et du travail féminin, elle milite pour la coopération entre les sexes dans les oeuvres sociales. Ses écrits marient érudition, sensibilité et engagement. Elle laisse une oeuvre influente sur l'art sacré, la condition des femmes et la philanthropie.
