Charlotte Mew
Charlotte Mary Mew (15 November 1869 – 24 March 1928) was an English poet, whose work spans the cusp between Victorian poetry and Modernism.
==Early life and education==
She was born in Bloomsbury, London the daughter of the architect Frederick Mew, who designed Hampstead town hall,〔(Hampstead - Local Government | British History Online )〕 and Anna Kendall.〔Warner, Val, ed. ''Collected Poems and Selected Prose of Charlotte Mews''. New York: Routledge, 2003, p. ix.〕The marriage produced seven children. Charlotte, nicknamed Lotti by her family, attended Gower Street School, where she became infatuated with the school's headmistress, Lucy Harrison,〔Fitzgerald, Penelope. ''Charlotte Mew and Her Friends''. NY: Addison-Wesley, 1988, p. 28〕 and lectures at University College London.〔Spender, Dale and Janet Todd, ed. ''British Women Writers: An Anthology from the Fourteenth Century to the Present''. New York: Bedrick Books, 1989, p. 695.〕 Her father died in 1898 without making adequate provision for his family; two of her siblings suffered from mental illness, and were committed to institutions, and three others died in early childhood leaving Charlotte, her mother and her sister, Anne. Charlotte and Anne made a pact never to marry for fear of passing on insanity to their children. (One author calls Charlotte "almost certainly chastely lesbian)". Through most of her adult life, Mew wore masculine attire and kept her hair short, adopting the appearance of a dandy.〔Rice, p. 6〕
