Books with author Frances Eleanor Trollope

Frances Eleanor Trollope, nėe Ternan, was born in August 1835 on board a paddle steamer in Delaware Bay in the United States. After an introduction by Charles Dickens she became the governess to the child of Thomas Adolphus Trollope, the brother to the more famed Anthony. Within months they had married and settled on a new life together in Rome. It was from here that Frances elevated her talents to become a full member of the Trollope writing dynasty. Her fiction is peopled by eccentric cosmopolitan Londoners, Italian and French visitors, and motherless, bright, and educated young women trying to carve out niches for themselves within the boundaries of the middle and upper-middle classes, with varying degrees of success. Although her work was fashionable at the time it fell into obscurity after her death but is now becoming the subject of growing interest and deservedly so.

Excerpt from That Wild Wheel a NovelIT was the middle Of September. Tyburnia and Belgravia were doubtless duly depopulated, and blankly fronted, with shuttered windows, such unfashionable individuals as might occasionally wake the sleeping echoes Of their pavement. But in a certain London thoroughfare, on a certain Saturday evening, the life of the great city roared and rushed as usual; unconscious Of the absence Of a few thousand individuals, as the main body of a mighty river is unaffected by the ebb and flow that periodically fills and empties some shallow creek.The air was mild and soft; and jets of gas flaring nakedly in butchers' shops and above greengrocers' stalls made blurs of coarse yellow light in the hazy dusk. The brassy voices Of the venders shouting their wares seemed to bear a queer analogy to the flaring lights, and to Offend the ear with much the same sort Of unpleasant sensation as the crude glare inflicted on the eye.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Vienna and the Austrians, Vol. 1 of 2: With Some Account of a Journey Through Swabia, Bavaria, the Tyrol, and the SalzbourgIn what I have said of Austria, I have sought only to record What I have seen; with her foreign policy I have nothing to do: it makes no part of my subject, nor has it in any degree divided the attention and study I wished -to bestow on the simple machinery of her government, and its effect upon her own people.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A scornful reproach of being a socialite lies beneath this troubling tale by Frances Eleanor Trollope, Anthony Trollope’s sister-in-law and Frances Milton Trollope’s daughter-in-law. A Charming Fellow is a deep reflection of an inconsolably miserable marriage and its end results, as noted through the ogles of varied, expressive fictitious characters. Frances Eleanor Ternan Trollope was a writer. She was born on board a paddle steamer in Delaware Bay, the eldest of the three living daughters of the actors Thomas Lawless Ternan and Frances Eleanor Jarman Ternan. Her parents were on tour for three years in North America after they got married in Edinburgh. Her father was the manager of the Theatre Royal in Newcastle upon Tyne where her mother was a prominent actress. The three daughters as well as Frances were asked to flaunt their acting talents. Ellen Ternan, her younger sister, was the paramour of Charles Dickens and because of his intervention she was indorsed as a forthcoming tutor to the child of his widowed friend Thomas Trollope, after his wife Theodosia Trollope died. She later married Tom Trollope in spite of an age gap of 25 years. The marriage was set in five months of her being a tutor in Florence. She was his second wife. She and her husband resided in Italy from their marriage and then went back to England. A few of her stories include: Aunt Margaret's Trouble in 1866 as by "A New Writer"; Frances Eleanor Trollope used her own name in many of her other works; Mabel's Progress in 1867; The Sacristan's Household in 1869; Veronica in 1870; Anne Furness in 1871; Black Spirits and White in 1877; Like Ships Upon the Sea in 1883; That Unfortunate Marriage in 1888; Among Aliens in 1890; Madame Leroux in 1890; That Wild Wheel in 1892; The Fate of Fenella co-authored in 1892.
