Autoren-Porträt von Mary Cholmondeley
Mary Cholmondeley (1859-1925) was an English novelist whose literary career emerged in the late Victorian era, a period notorious for its rigid social structures and gender constructs. Born on June 8, 1859, into a clerical family in Hodnet, Shropshire, she was the third of eight children. Cholmondeley's writing often scrutinized the societal and domestic roles imposed on women and the challenges they faced in asserting their independence and intellectual capabilities. Her most famous work, 'Red Pottage' (1899), vividly encapsulates these themes and is acclaimed for its insight into the complex moral and psychological conflicts of its characters. The book became a bestseller and solidified her status as a serious writer of her time. Instead of marrying, Cholmondeley chose to live with her sisters, which allowed her to focus on her writing and support women's education and suffrage. Her prose is marked by incisive wit and a narrative style that blends realism with sharp social commentary, reflecting influences from earlier Victorian novelists such as George Eliot and Charlotte Brontë. Cholmondeley's other notable works include 'The Danvers Jewels' (1887) and 'Moth and Rust' (1902), both of which demonstrate her flair for exploring moral ambiguities and satirizing the rigidities of her social milieu. Despite the societal constraints of her time, Mary Cholmondeley's literary gifts catapulted her into recognition, and she remains a significant, though somewhat overlooked figure in the annals of feminist literature.
