Ms. Aikin also was responsible for translating the French texts: Louis Francois Jauffret's The Travels of Rolando (c. 1804), and Jean Gaspard Hess' The Life of Ulrich Zwingli (1812). She also was responsible for two creative works: Epistles on Women, Exemplifying their Character and Condition in Various Ages and Nations, with Miscellaneous Poems (1810), and her only work of fiction Lorimer (1814). She also was well-remembered for her biographical works: Memoir of John Aikin, MD (1823), The Works of Anna Laetita Barbauld (1825), The Life of Anne Boleyn (1827), and The Life of Joseph Addison (1843).
