Autorenporträt

Netta Syrett was an English writer of the late Victorian and early 20th-century period, known for her exploration of women's roles and societal expectations in her fiction. Born on March 17, 1865, in Ramsgate, she was the daughter of William Syrett and Louisa Syrett. She was educated at the North London Collegiate School before attending Hughes Hall, Cambridge, where she trained as a teacher. Syrett initially worked as a schoolteacher while beginning her literary career, contributing to periodicals and writing novels that often centered on independent-minded women challenging traditional constraints. Her works frequently aligned with the ideals of the New Woman movement, addressing themes of female autonomy, ambition, and personal fulfillment. One of her most notable novels, Portrait of a Rebel, was later adapted into the 1936 film A Woman Rebels. In addition to novels, she wrote short stories and children's literature, displaying a versatile literary style. Throughout her career, she maintained an interest in education and social reform, using her writing to critique the limitations placed on women. She continued writing well into the 20th century before passing away in London on December 15, 1943, at the age of 78.
