Autorenporträt
Helena Maria Lucy Swanwick CH was a British feminist and pacifist. Her autobiography, I Have Been Young (1935), provides a fascinating account of the non-militant women's suffrage struggle in the United Kingdom and anti-war campaigning during World War I, as well as philosophical debates of nonviolence. Swanwick's name and photograph, along with 58 other women's suffrage advocates, appear on the plinth of Millicent Fawcett's statue in Parliament Square, London, which was unveiled in April 2018. Swanwick was born in Munich, the only child of Eleanor Louisa Henry and Danish painter Oswald Sickert. Swanwick's brother was painter Walter Sickert. Her maternal grandmother was an Irish dancer who became pregnant with astronomer Richard Sheepshanks, a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge. Swanwick's feminist beliefs were informed by his reading of John Stuart Mill's The Subjection of Women (1869). She attended Girton College in Cambridge before being employed as a psychology instructor at Westfield College in 1885. She married Frederick Swanwick, a Manchester University lecturer, in 1888.
