Maria Gisborne
Maria Gisborne (''née'' James, previously Reveley; 1770 – 1836) was a friend and correspondent of Mary and Percy Bysshe Shelley, and William Godwin.
==Early life==
Maria James, the daughter of an English merchant at Constantinople, was born in 1770, probably in England.〔Kaloustian 2007.〕〔Older sources name her father as James Barnes, but this appears to be incorrect.〕 When she was eight years old, her mother, who had been left in poverty, determined to rejoin her husband and sailed for Constantinople, only to discover that James had established a new household with the wife of one of his skippers.〔 He persuaded his wife to return to England by promising an annuity, but had Maria kidnapped and concealed until her mother's departure. He subsequently brought her up with care, and gave her a good education. She showed a talent for painting, and grew up a beautiful and accomplished woman. Mary Shelley later hinted at sexual precocity, writing of Maria's upbringing that "she was left to run wild as she might, and at a very early age had gone through the romance of life".〔 Jeremy Bentham met her at her father's house in Constantinople in 1785, accompanied her on the violin, and said that she was the only woman he had met who could keep time. Not long afterwards, she and her father moved to Rome.〔
