Mary Augusta Arnold (June 11, 1851 - March 24, 1920) was an English novelist, under her married name of Mrs Humphry Ward.

She was born in Tasmania, her father being Thomas, a younger son of Thomas Arnold and brother of Matthew Arnold. The family returned to England when Mary was a small child, and lived in Oxford, where her father worked for John Henry Newman. This brought her into contact with the leaders of the Oxford Movement, though she was not herself a follower. In 1872, she married Thomas Humphry Ward, a fellow of Brasenose, and in 1881 the couple moved to London. Her fourth, and best-known, novel, Robert Elsmere (1888), includes a discussion of some of the religious ideas with which she had become familiar through her father's activities. Robert Elsmere was quite controversial in its day.

Her novels still in print include:

Robert Elsmere (1888)
Marcella (1894)
Helbeck of Bannisdale (1898)
Eleanor: A Novel (1900)
The Marriage of William Ashe (1905)
Lady Rose's Daughter (????)

Stettlement, Foundations, Colleague Activists[edit]

There is not enough here on stettlements etc. I have created a section in which they may be linked.

Equally she was quite an activist. This now has a section where those with whom she associated may be linked. If she is missing from their pages they shoudl also be linked back here, naturallt

Does anyone know where this image is from Image:MaryAugustaWard.jpg. I would like to use it on s:Author:Mary Augusta Ward, but before moving it to commons I need to be sure that it was either published in the US, or is PD in country of origin as well.

There is an error in the article on Mary Augusta Ward. Theodore Roosevelt was not president during the first world war - Wilson was. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.69.253.5 (talk) 13:00, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
