E[dith] Nesbit Nesbit, E[dith] (1858-1924) Poet, Fabian, author of children's literature. Also known as Edith Nesbit Bland, Nesbit published most of her work under the gender-hiding signature of "E. Nesbit."; with her husband, she also published under the alias "Fabian Bland." Nesbit was a prolific writer whose prodigious output allowed her to support her large, sprawling family. Known primarily as a writer of children's literature, Nesbit also sought to be recognized as a serious poet in her lifetime. She may well have been regarded as such in the New Age , where she was an occasional contributor of poetry, mostly in the first two volumes (1907-8); she also wrote, in volume 1 , an article about the "Anglo-Russian Alliance." A bright, striking woman who circulated in bohemian and Fabian circles, Nesbit could leave quite an impression.Here's how Ada Elizabeth Jones Chesterton remembered her: Fabian Society [Nesbit] helped to reverse the great tradition of children's literature inaugurated by Carroll, MacDonald and Kenneth Grahame, in turning away from their secondary worlds to the tough truths to be won from encounters with things-as-they-are, previously the province of adult novels. (xx) Briggs also credits Nesbit with having invented the children's adventure story. Among Nesbit's best-known books are

E. Nesbit (1858-1924) Pessimism (from Lays and Legends Dead Leaves Night and Morning A Choice Pessimism Not Springtoo lavish of her bud and leaf But Autumn, with sad eyes and brow austere, When fields are bare, and woods are brown and sere, And leaden skies weep their exhaustless grief. Spring is so much too bright, since Spring is brief. And in our hearts is Autumn all the year, Least sad when the wide pastures are most drear, And fields grieve most robbed of the last gold sheaf. For when the plough goes down the brown wet field A delicate doubtful throb of hope is ours What if this coming Spring at last should yield Joy, with her too profuse unasked-for flowers? Not all our Springs of commonplace and pain Have taught us now that Autumn hope is vain. Text from Sonnets of This Century Dead Leaves Not Summer's crown of scent the red rose weaves, Not hawthorn perfume blown o'er bloom-strewn grass, Not violets' whispers as the children pass, Nor new-mown hay, crisp scent of yellow sheaves, Nor lilac perfume in the soft May eves, Nor any scent that Springtime can amass

(The Despot, 25-28) The Despot In Trouble Notes on Life and Works Born in London but educated in convents on the Continent and in England, Edith Nesbit started out as a writer of stories. In 1880, seven months pregnant, she married Hubert Bland, a founding member of the Fabian Society when it was founded four years later. Caught in a marriage with four children and infidelities on both sides, and with the main responsibility for income, Nesbit wrote commercial novels and stories, but she continued to produce volumes of poetry in hope of literary acclaim. Success arrived with her children's books, especially the Bastable novels ( The Story of the Treasure-Seekers Would-be-Goods , and The New Treasure-seekers ) and The Railway Children (1906). By this time she and Bland has converted to Roman Catholicism. Three years after Bland's death in 1914, Nesbit married Thomas Terry Tucker. She died of cancer in Jesson St. Mary's, Kent. Biographies include Doris Moore's
