Jane Porter
Jane Porter (17 January 1776 – 24 May 1850) was an English historical novelist, dramatist and literary figure. ==Life== Jane Porter was born in Durham as the third of the five children of William Porter and Jane ''née'' Blenkinsop. Tall and beautiful as she grew up, Jane Porter's grave air earned her the nickname ''La Penserosa'' ("the pensive girl"). After her father's death, her family moved to Edinburgh, where Sir Walter Scott was a regular visitor. Some time afterwards the family moved to London, where the sisters became acquainted with a number of literary women: Elizabeth Inchbald, Anna Laetitia Barbauld, Hannah More, Elizabeth Hamilton, Elizabeth Benger and Mrs Champion de Crespigny. Porter's siblings also achieved some fame in their lifetimes; her sister Anna Maria Porter was also a novelist; her brother Sir Robert Ker Porter was a noted painter.
