Emily Shore's journal is the unique self-representation of a
prodigious young Victorian woman. From July 5, 1831, at the age of
eleven, until June 24, 1839, two weeks before her death from
consumption, Margaret Emily Shore recorded her reactions to the
world around her. She wrote of political issues, natural history,
her progress as a scholar and scientist, and the worlds of art and
literature. In her brief life, this remarkable young woman also
produced, but did not publish, three novels, three books of poetry,
and histories of the Jews, the Greeks, and the Romans, and she
published several essays on birds. Written in an authoritative
voice more often associated with men of her time, her journal
reveals her to be well versed in the life of an early Victorian
woman.
