Hannah More
Hannah More was an English Authoress and philanthropist whose life spanned both the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
Hannah More was distinguished for her talents and the noble manner in which she exerted them. She was famous for her work as an author, which was kept alive until near the middle of the nineteenth century. While she was undoubtedly one of the most well-known and influential English woman of her day, today the name of Hannah More is virtually unknown. Hannah More was born in Stapleton, Gloucestershire, near Bristol, on February 2, 1745. Her father, Jacob More, was a schoolmaster who made sure his daughters were well educated. While still in their teens the three eldest daughters of the More family founded a girls boarding school in Bristol, which soon became well known. Hannah received her education at this seminary, which shaped the rest of her life. bodyOffer(27652) At the age of sixteen, Hannah composed a pastoral drama, The Search After Happiness, which was later published and widely read. In 1774 her tragedy of the Inflexible Captive, and in 1775 two legendary poems, Sir Eldred of the Bower, and The Bleeding Rock. Garrick, the great actor, directed her successful play, Percy in 1777. Around 1779, religious impressions convinced Hannah to stop writing for the stage and she increasingly turned to more distinctly Christian work. With Pastor John Newton, author of the hymn Amazing Grace, as her spiritual mentor, she went on to pen such works as Sacred Dramas, a satirical tale, Florio, and Religion of the Fashionable World. All of Hannahs writings were infused with strong moral purpose. She wrote a series of popular essays encouraging Christian leaders to establish moral laws as well as a series of tracts to counter the rationalism of her time.

Narrative Space as Social Space: Scripting Class in Hannah More's The Shepherd of Salisbury Plain
These conflicting ideological pressures - simultaneous solicitude and revulsion for the labouring class - produce particular kinds of consequences in More's texts. As Gary Kelly notes, the major deficiency of the Cheap Repository Tracts is that they function less as story than as catechism, and offer "a fantasy of social order inspired, reconstructed, and presided over by the Evangelicals themselves." (155) This is seen perhaps most clearly in the best-known of the tracts, The Shepherd of Salisbury Plain. This ambivalence - which is what I want to examine here - derives from More's hierarchization of the narrative space, through the use of a frame wherein the poor characters are observed and discussed by upper class characters. Typically, the Cheap Repository tract stories are told by an omniscient, intrusive narrator; character is signalled through names (for eg, Mr Fantom, Mr Trueman, Mr Worthy, Mr Bragwell); and the moral message is conveyed primarily through debate in the form of dialogue. The Shepherd of Salibury Plain deviates from this somewhat in that the title character is based on a real shepherd named David Saunders, and dialogue is not marked off from the rest of the text as it is in other pieces. The story highlights a series of conversations between "a worthy charitable gentleman" (I, 251) named Mr. Johnson and a poor, pious shepherd, who is later rewarded for his Christian virtue with a position as parish clerk and Sunday School master. The conversations are framed by an unnamed narrator, apparently a correspondent of Mr. Johnson's, who is privy to his thoughts and nods approvingly at various points when the shepherd says something particularly good. The conversations focus primarily on the difficulties of a shepherd's employment, the family's poverty, and of course scripture. There is a marked lack of plot until the end when Providence and Mr. Johnson intervene to help the worthy family out of their very difficult circumstances.

hannah more
Hannah More was initially famous for her play writing and involvement in 'blue stocking' circles. Later her evangelicalism led her to philanthropy, writing popular religious tracts and to pioneering work in Sunday Schools. Here we examine her contribution and her involvement in the development of youth work.
contents: introduction hannah more - her life and works sunday schooling religious tracts and literacy ... how to cite this article Hannah More (1745-1833) has been recently 'rediscovered' as both an early feminist and as an anti-feminist. This focus on her beliefs about gender has led to criticism that has been 'somewhat flat and one-dimensional' (Lawless 1999). Hannah More's philanthropic activities, her theories and practices as an educator, her involvement in pressure group politics, and her contribution to literacy studies are worthy of sustained attention. Patricia Demmers (1996), for example, judges that she was the most influential female philanthropist of her day and Anne Stott (2003) has described her as the 'first Victorian' In this article we examine, in particular, her involvement with her sister Martha in the development of Sunday schooling; her contribution via religious tracts to the development of literacy; and her approach more generally to education. It has been claimed by writers like Young and Ashton (1956) and Milson (1979) that Hannah More was one of the central precursors of youth work. We briefly examine this claim and the contribution she made to the development of informal education.

It is not so important to know everything as to know the exact value of everything, to appreciate what we learn, and to arrange what we know. One kernel is felt in a hogshead; one drop of water helps to swell the ocean; a spark of fire help to give light to the world. None are too small, too feeble, too poor to be of service. Think of this and act. Goals help you overcome short-term problems. Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off the goal.

HANNAH MORE
MORE, HANNAH Perhaps the best proof of Hannah Mores ste~ling worth was her indefatigable philanthropic workher long-continued exertions to improve the condition of the children in the mining districts of the Mendip Hills near her home at Cowslip Green and Barley Wood. The More sisters i-net with a good deal ~ opposition in their good works. The farmers thought that education, even to the limited extent of learning to read, would be fatal to agriculture, and the clergy, whose neglect she was making good, accused her of Methodist tendencies. In her old age, philanthropists from all parts made pilgrimages to see the bright and amiable old lady, and she retained all her faculties till within two years of her death, dying at Clifton, where the last five years of her life were spent, on the 7th of September 1833. See The Life of Hannah More, with Notices of Her Sisters (1838), by the Rev. Henry Thompson. The article in the Did. Nat. Biog. is by Sir Leslie Stephen. Some letters of Hannah More, with a very slight connecting narrative, were published in 3872 by William Roberts as The Life of Hannah More. See also Hannah More (1888), by Charlotte M. Yonge, in the Eminent Women series, and Hannah More (New York and London, 1900), by Marion Harland. Letters of Hannah More to Zachary Macaulay were edited (1860) by Arthur Roberts. The contemporary opposition to her may be seen in an abusive Life of Hannah More, with a Critical Review of Her Writings (1802), by the Rev. Archibald Macsarcasm (William Shaw, rector of Chelvey, Somerset).

Hannah More, "On the Danger of Sentimental or Romantic Connexions" (1778) in Works, Vol. VI, pp. 295-307
The present age may be termed ... the age of sentiment, a word which, in the implication it now bears, was unknown to our plain ancestors. Sentiment is the varnish of virtue, to conceal the deformity of vice; and it is not uncommon for the same persons to make a jest of religion, to break through the most solemn ties and engagements, to practice every art of latent fraud and open seduction, and yet to value themselves on speaking and writing sentimentally. But this refined jargon, which has infested letters and tainted morals, is chiefly admired and adopted by young ladies of a certain turn, who read sentimental books, write sentimental letters, and contract sentimental friendships. In this essay, More is concerned to warn young ladies against the temptation to enter into "sentimental connexions," which are merely euphemistically presented liasons. She describes in detail the strategies of young men who set out to ensnare "sentimental girls," and paints a vivid picture of the unhappy marriage that is sure to result from such a seduction. Throughout the work, she bitterly satirizes the lofty language of sentimental speech and writing, suggesting that the phenomenon of the "sentimental girl" is based on affectation and false refinement. To illustrate her point, More introduces a distinction between "sentiment" and "principle":
