A LADY, _demonym_ [Mrs. ANNA JAMESON].
The Diary of an Ennuyée, 1826. Several editions since.
Accident caused this work to be published, and we may also say that accident made the authoress. A gentleman who knew her and her husband well, was looking over some of her papers, and found this Diary; he was so pleased with it that he offered to publish it, which he did; but about that time (1825) abandoning the bookselling for the Bar, where he afterwards took rank, he transferred the work to Mr. Colburn, who put a fresh title-page, altering it from A Lady’s Diary to that which it at present bears. The running title of the 1st edition is A Lady’s Diary. It was pretended that it was published “exactly as it was found on the death of the author.”
“The chief portion of Mrs. Jameson’s volumes [Visits and Sketches at Home and Abroad, 1833] is, however, only a reprint of the Diary of, etc.--a delightful book, with an affected title, which has, it is hard to say why, only attained the honours of a second edition, in this almost surreptitious and certainly not very flattering re-appearance.”--_Edinb. Review_, 1835.

ALICE (Cousin), _prenonym_ [ALICE B. NEALE].
Helen Morton’s Trial, juvenile tale. New York, 1852.
A LINCOLNSHIRE GRAZIER, _pseudo-titlonym_ [Rev. THOMAS HARTWELL HORNE].
The circumstances under which this pseudonym was employed, if they were not rather distressing, would be highly amusing. The reverend gentleman, who afterwards raised his name to such a high position in literature, was in 1805 in great distress, and glad to work for the booksellers. Having obtained an introduction to Crosby, the publisher, upon the hard condition that he would give half his earnings to his introducer, Horne was offered £50 for a work of 400 pages (!) on the Management of Grazing Farms, to be called “The Complete Grazier.” The bargain was struck, and in nine months our barrister’s clerk reduced the mass of materials set before him by the publisher, and they were ushered into the world as by “A Lincolnshire Grazier,” and the book was _pushed through_ several editions. The poor booksellers’s hack was in want, but what excuse is there for Crosby, the then opulent publisher, of Paternoster Row, for his share of this imposition?

A LOVER OF LITERATURE, _phraseonym_ [THOMAS GREEN, Barrister-at-Law, of Ipswich].
In this “Diary of a Lover of Literature,” on June 2nd, 1797, we have:--“Visited the Royal Exhibition. Particularly struck with a sea-view by Turner; fishing vessels coming in, with a heavy swell, in apprehension of a tempest gathering in the distance.... The whole composition bold in design, and masterly in execution. I am entirely unacquainted with the artist; but if he proceeds as he has begun, he cannot fail to become the first in his department.” J. M. W. Turner was then twenty-five. The continuation was contributed by Mr. Green’s son to the _Gent. Mag._, 1834.
