Autorenporträt
Hannah Lynch was an Irish feminist, novelist, journalist, and translator, born on March 25, 1859, in Dublin, Ireland. Raised in a predominantly female household, she experienced a strong sense of nationalism, influenced by her father and stepfather, both committed Fenians. After her father s early death, Lynch s mother remarried, and the family became involved in the Irish nationalist movement. Lynch worked as a sub-editor and governess in Europe, using her diverse experiences to fuel her writing. She was an active member of the Ladies' Land League and worked closely with notable figures like Fanny Parnell. Lynch s literary career was marked by her satirical sketches, short stories, and political fiction. Her works often addressed political and cultural issues in Ireland, sometimes sparking controversy. Her first novel, Through Troubled Waters, was based on a tragic real-life incident in Galway, causing a stir due to its portrayal of the rural clergy's role in the event. Lynch's writings also included translations, literary criticism, and travel writing. She spent much of her working life in Paris, continuing to publish and contribute to Irish literature. Lynch passed away in Paris on January 9, 1904. Her works remain an important part of Irish literary history.
