Elizabeth Gertrude Bunter, better known as Bessie Bunter, is a fictional character created by Charles Hamilton, who also created her more famous brother Billy Bunter. ==History== Billy Bunter was a central character in the Greyfriars School stories which appeared in the boys' story paper, ''The Magnet'' from 1907 to 1940 and Bessie's first appearance was in a 1919 Greyfriars story. She was a pupil of Cliff House School, a girls' school near Greyfriars. In 1919, attempting to replicate the success of ''The Magnet'', Amalgamated Press decided to bring out a new magazine for girls called ''The School Friend'' (later ''The Schoolgirl''), which included stories by Hamilton about Cliff House using the pen-name Hilda Richards, supposedly the sister of Frank. The stories were soon taken over by other authors, also using the name Hilda Richards. Hamilton wrote one more Cliff House story, in 1949, called "Bessie Bunter of Cliff House School", and published by Cassell. The character also appeared in comic-strip format; in addition, she featured as an adult character in ''The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Black Dossier'' where she married the former Greyfriars schoolboy Harry Wharton. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bessie Bunter」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
