Charlotte Mary Yonge

    11. august 1823 – 24. máj 1901

    Charlotte Mary Yonge bola plodná anglická autorka, známa svojim rozsiahlym dielom, ktoré je dnes prevažne nedostupné. Jej tvorba sa primárne sústreďovala na romány, často s témami kresťanskej viery, sebaobetovania a historických udalostí. Yonge tiež štyridsať rokov pôsobila ako zakladateľka a redaktorka časopisu The Monthly Packet, ktorý bol zameraný na britské anglikánske dievčatá a snažil sa ich formovať v duchu morálnych hodnôt a vzdelania. Jej vplyv siahal aj mimo literatúry, keďže jej príklad nepriamo viedol k založeniu dievčenskej školy.
