词条 | Dora Wordsworth |
释义 |
Described by her aunt and namesake Dorothy Wordsworth as "at times very beautiful",[6] Dora was devoted to her father and a significant influence on his poetry. Their relationship was particularly close, with Coleridge's son Hartley describing how she "almost adored" him in an 1830 letter.[7] However, Dora also had literary abilities of her own, publishing a travel journal. Sara Coleridge complained after Dora's death that her father's demands on her "frustrated a real talent".[8] Dora Wordsworth died of tuberculosis at her parents' home, and is buried in the graveyard of St Oswald's Church, Grasmere, Cumbria along with her parents and siblings, aunt Sarah Hutchinson and Hartley Coleridge, son of Samuel Taylor Coleridge.[9] After her death, her distraught father (who had already lost two of his children to illness), planted hundreds of daffodils in her memory in a field beside St. Mary's Church, Rydal.[10] The site, Dora's Field, where daffodils are still cultivated today is now owned by the National Trust.[11] References1. ^"England, Births and Christenings, 1538–1975," index, FamilySearch (accessed 23 Aug 2012), [https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NR9X-1X5 Dorothy Wordsworth], 16 Sep 1804; citing reference, FHL microfilm 97368. {{William Wordsworth}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Wordsworth, Dora}}2. ^Address To My Infant Daughter at bartleby.com 3. ^Furr, Derek, The Perfect Match: Wordsworth's The Triad and Coleridge's Garden of Boccaccio In Context 4. ^1 Jones, Katherine, Introduction to the Passionate Sisterhood 5. ^MS University Library, Davis, California. also, reproduced with permission in Knapman, D. - Conversation Sharp - The Biography of a London Gentleman, Richard Sharp (1759–1835), in Letters, Prose and Verse.
