Anglo-Irish art historian.
Said things about language:
"....we are not sufficiently careful to habituate children to the accurate use of words."
This is from her _Commonplace Book of Thoughts, Memories and Fancies_ (1855). The "commonplace book" is a totally forgotten genre -- or does it perhaps survive without the name?
She also spent two years in Canada (1836-1838), and wrote _Winter Studies and Summer Rambles in Canada)_, which sounds interesting.
