Autorenporträt
Christabel Rose Coleridge was an English author and editor of girls' magazines. She was born on May 25, 1843, and died on November 14, 1921. Sometimes she worked with author Charlotte Mary Yonge. She had strong ideas about how women should behave in society. Christabel was born at St. Mark's College, Chelsea, while her father, Derwent, was teacher there. She is the granddaughter of the poet Samuel Coleridge. She got her name from the poem "Christabel" by Samuel Coleridge. Coleridge lived her dream of becoming a writer, but for a while she helped her brother Ernest run a school. After that, she wrote and published more than 15 books. The first was Lady Betty (1869), a history story for kids. The story of Minstrel Dick (1896) takes place mostly in the court of Edward the Black Prince, who is dying, in Berkhamstead in the 1400s. She wrote fiction that showed how morally concerned she was, and the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge released a number of her books. Charlotte Yonge was a friend of Christabel's. Charlotte and Christabel were linked through Mary Elizabeth Coleridge, who was also a member of Yonge's informal group, the Goslings. Among the books they worked together on were "The Miz Maze" and "The Winkworth Puzzle: A Story in Letters, by Nine Authors" (1883).
