Elizabeth Carter

''Elizabeth Carter as [[Minerva]], goddess of wisdom'', by [[John Fayram]] (painted between 1735 and 1741), [[National Portrait Gallery (United Kingdom)|NPG]] Elizabeth Carter (pen name Eliza; 16 December 1717 – 19 February 1806) was an English poet, classicist, writer, translator, and linguist. As one of the Bluestocking Circle that surrounded Elizabeth Montagu, she earned respect for the first English translation of the 2nd-century ''Discourses of Epictetus''. She also published poems and translated from French and Italian, and corresponded profusely. Among her many eminent friends were Elizabeth Montagu, Hannah More, Hester Chapone and other Bluestocking members. Also close friends were Anne Hunter, a poet and socialite, and Mary Delany. She befriended Samuel Johnson, editing some editions of his periodical ''The Rambler''. Provided by Wikipedia
