Résumé: | Lady Grace Mildmay's journal, now deposited at the Central Library in Northampton, England, has two sections. The first is an autobiography, begun in 1617, which was written as an introduction to the second section, her meditations on a variety of Christian works, including the Geneva Bible and the Imitatio Christi. Her journal is significant because it contains the earliest extant full autobiography written in English rather than dictated in English by a woman. |
