Edward Abbott Parry (1863-1943) was an English judge and dramatist.
Published in 1888, this work reproduced for the first time in full
the letters sent by the English gentlewoman Dorothy Osborne
(1627-95) to Sir William Temple (1628-99) during their courtship.
Osborne first met Temple on the Isle of Wight in 1648, but both
their families opposed the relationship and the couple were not
able to marry until 1654. Osborne's letters are highly engaging,
especially notable for their political and social commentary as
well as for the details they reveal about her daily life and the
clandestine courtship. Only one of Temple's letters survives, since
Osborne destroyed them as soon as she had read them. While extracts
of her letters had appeared in print earlier, the lawyer and author
Edward Abbott Parry (1863-1943) was the first person to publish the
entire collection of surviving correspondence. His edition is
particularly valuable for the explanatory notes that accompany each
letter.
