Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall
''Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall'' is a 1902 historical novel written by Charles Major. Following the life and romances of Dorothy Vernon in Elizabethan England, the novel became the year's third most successful novel according to the ''The Bookman'' annual list of bestselling novels. The novel was Charles Major's third, and his second bestseller, following ''When Knighthood Was in Flower''. A (1903 play ) and a 1924 film are based on the novel. ==History== Historically, Dorothy Vernon, the daughter of Sir George Vernon, the owner of Haddon Hall, married John Manners, the second son of Thomas Manners, 1st Earl of Rutland (circa 1492 - 1543) in 1563.〔Trutt, David. ("Haddon Hall's Dorothy Vernon" ). 2006, accessed September 6, 2011〕 Sir George supposedly disapproved of the union, possibly because the Manners were Protestants and the Vernons were Catholics. According to legend, 18-year-old Dorothy eloped with Manners.〔 In the novel, neither Dorothy Vernon nor John Manners has any siblings. Also, John Manners' father is alive. In the novel, the elopement takes place in 1568 (an adjustment needed to make it line up with Queen Mary's flight to England, which is a plot point in the novel).
