Through the Year with Famous Authors by Mabel Patterson
"Through the Year with Famous Authors" by Mabel Patterson is a literary anthology written in the early 20th century. This collection presents a thoughtful selection of quotes, poems, and excerpts from various renowned authors, arranged by month, to inspire reflection and appreciation for literature. The book serves as both a celebration of literary figures and an exploration of timeless themes present in their works. At the start of the anthology, the author
introduces January with a series of quotes and brief biographies of significant writers born in this month, including Maria Edgeworth, Richard Henry Horne, and Arthur Hugh Clough. Each entry features a notable quotation that encapsulates a particular thought or insight, followed by a short section detailing the author's life and contributions to literature. This sets a reflective tone, inviting readers to not only engage with the words of these famous authors but also to contemplate their impact throughout the ages.
