About this Item

THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. Mathilde Blind (born Mathilda Cohen; 1841 â?? 1896), was a German-born English poet, fiction writer, biographer, essayist and critic. In the early 1870s she emerged as a pioneering female aesthete in a mostly male community of artists and writers. By the late 1880s she had become prominent among New Woman writers such as Vernon Lee (Violet Paget), Amy Levy, Mona Caird, Olive Schreiner, Rosamund Marriott Watson, and Katharine Tynan. More recently Blind has attracted the attention of women's literature scholars, her burning sense of political and social injustice runs like a unifying thread through her work. Used: inked inscription inside bo.
