Frederica Dorothy Violet Carrington, Lady Rose, MBE (6 June 1910 – 26 January 2002) was an expatriate British writer domiciled for over half her life in Corsica. She was one of the twentieth century's leading scholars on the island's culture and history about which she wrote numerous books and articles. ==Early life== Dorothy Carrington was the daughter of Major General Sir Frederick Carrington, a hero for his crushing of the Matabele Rebellion and a friend of Cecil Rhodes. Her mother was Susan Elwes. Both her parents had died by the time she was eight. Subsequently, she read English at St Margaret's Hall, Oxford from which she fled. Eventually, she married an Austrian, Franz Otto Resseguier Waldschutz〔()〕 in 1936, whose family estates in Poland had been destroyed during the First World War. Franz went out to Rhodesia, Africa, where she joined him for a short time but the wilderness did not suit her, so she returned to Europe in 1937. However Franz preferred Rhodesia and stayed and built an estate called Wilton.〔()〕 They divorced in 1937. A second marriage, to Darcy Sproul-Bolton, ended with his death in the late 1930s. She then immersed herself in the London art world, and in 1942 organised an exhibition at the Leicester Galleries, "Imaginative Art since the War". One of the exhibitors was the surrealist painter Sir Francis Rose, whom she shortly after married. He was a friend of Gertrude Stein.
