Autorenporträt
English author Charlotte Mary Yonge (1823-1901) composed her works for the church. Her prodigious literary output not only demonstrated her deep interest in public health and sanitation issues, but also contributed to the Oxford Movement's wider dissemination. William Yonge and Fanny Yonge, née Bargus, welcomed Charlotte Mary Yonge into the world on August 11, 1823, at Otterbourne, Hampshire, England. Her father taught her schooling at home, where she studied algebra, Latin, Greek, and French. Her father might be a strict teacher: I could never have matched his meticulousness and correctness. He frequently made me cry and yelled at me so loudly that no one could listen, yet his approval was so sweet that it was a great stimulation. I think it would have devastated our hearts to stop working together, despite everyone's complaints about my inherent slovenliness. We continued till I was a few years older than twenty. Yonge's relationship with her father appears to have established the bar for all future relationships, including marriage, because of her unwavering lifetime commitment to him. Their "approbation was throughout life my bliss; his anger my misery for the time."
