Frederica Maclean Rowan (22 April, 1814 – 23 October, 1882) was an British author and translator. ==Life== Rowan was born in West Indies in 1814. She worked for some years for the barrister and philanthropist Sir Francis Goldsmid. His wife was Louisa Goldsmid who campaigned for women's rights and education. Rowan had more moderate opinions believing that women should have equality under the law but without the need for political action.〔F. T. Marzials, ‘Rowan, Frederica Maclean (1814–1882)’, rev. Susanne Stark, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 (accessed 15 Nov 2015 )〕 Her most notable translation is that of work by Johann Heinrich Daniel Zschokke which was appreciated by Prince Albert. After Albert's death, Queen Victoria asked Rowan to translate further and assisted her by editing the resulting text.〔 Rowan died in Maida Hill in London in 1882.. 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「Frederica Maclean Rowan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
