A LIST OF THE WORKS OF ELLEN CLERKE

Poems: The Flying Dutchman and Other Poems. (1881.)

Versified translations of Italian poetry in Dr. Garnett’s History of Italian Literature. (1898.)

Fable and Song in Italy. (1899.)

Flowers of Fire: a novel which gives an admirable account of the phenomena of an eruption of Vesuvius. (1902.)

An immense number of magazine articles, including a weekly leader contributed for twenty years to the Tablet.

Monograph on Jupiter and his System. (1892.)

Monograph on Venus. (1893.)

An article in the Observatory, vol. xv. p. 271.

The monographs on Jupiter and on Venus, although unpretentious, are based upon careful reading of the best authorities, and are written in a way which places them above the ordinary popularisers.

The article above referred to in the Observatory was the outcome of her Arabic reading, and showed that there can be little doubt that the variability of Algol had been noticed by the Arabian astronomers.

Note.--The portrait is from a photograph taken not long before death.
