Mitchell Papers Sarah Orne Jewett papers, Catalog Number: Series List: Correspondence Photographs Agency History / Biographical Note: Sarah Orne Jewett (1849-1909) grew up in South Berwick, Maine, where she lived all of her life. She studied at Berwick Academy, but her schooling was frequently interrupted due to a delicate disposition. Instead, much of her knowledge came from tutors, immersion in the family library and the long trips she took with her father, Dr. Theodore Herman Jewett (Bowdoin 1834), to visit his patients around Maine. Dr. Jewett taught at Bowdoin College (1867-1869) and was president of the Medical Society of Maine (1877-1878). After his death in 1878, Sarah Orne Jewett developed a close friendship with Annie Adams Fields, with whom she traveled to the West Indies. Later the two women went to Europe, where they met with Alfred Lord Tennyson and Henry James. Jewett never married, instead focusing her efforts and energies on her writing. She is considered by many to be the prominent voice of a bygone New England sentimentality. Often her stories were first published in the

Jewett, Sarah Orne Sarah Orne Jewett Corbis-Bettmann (1849-1909), author Born on September 3, 1849, in South Berwick, Maine, Theodora Sarah Jewett was often taken by her physician father on visits to the fishermen and farmers of the area, and she developed a deep and abiding love of their way of life and of the sights and sounds of her surroundings. These experiences, and reading in her family's ample library, formed the bulk of her education. Although she also attended the Berwick Academy, graduating in 1865, she considered her schooling insignificant compared to the learning she gained on her own. During her childhood she began to write of the perishing farms and neglected, shipless harbors around her. She published her first story, "Jenny Garrow's Lovers," in the Flag of Our Union in 1868 and followed it with "The Shipwrecked Buttons" in the Riverside Magazine for Young People and "Mr. Bruce" in the Atlantic Monthly in 1869. Her early pieces were signed "Alice Eliot" or "A.C. Eliot." Numerous later sketches of a New England town, "Deephaven," that resembled South Berwick, were published in the Atlantic Monthly and were collected in Deephaven (1877), her first book.

Sarah Orne Jewett's evocative sketches of village life in nineteenth-century Maine have earned her a place among the most important practitioners of American regional writing. Born in South Berwick, Maine, Jewett grew up steeped in the idioms and atmosphere of coastal New England. Her early experiences accompanying her father, a rural doctor, on house calls provided her with insight into the daily lives of the people who would eventually populate her fiction. Jewett's father encouraged her writing aspirations and instilled in her his taste for realistic description and restrained narrationqualities that characterized Jewett's best work. As early as her teens, Jewett began writing and publishing fiction and poetry, placing one of her stories in the influential literary magazine the

Home Educational Programs Performances Artistic Statement ... Map to Pontine Pontine On Tour THE COUNTRY OF THE POINTED FIRS Sarah Orne Jewett (1849-1909) was born and died in South Berwick, Maine. Her work was widely published and highly esteemed in her own lifetime. THE COUNTRY OF THE POINTED FIRS (1896) is considered Jewett's finest work, described by Henry James as her "beautiful little quantum of achievement." Despite James's diminutives, the novel remains a classic. Because it is loosely structured, many critics view the book not as a novel, but a series of sketches; however, its structure is unified through both setting and theme. Jewett herself felt that her strengths as a writer lay not in plot development or dramatic tension, but in character development. Indeed, she determined early in her career to preserve a disappearing way of life, and her novel can be read as a study of the effects of isolation and hardship on the inhabitants who lived in the decaying fishing villages along the Maine coast.

The Country Of The Pointed Firs Sarah Orne Jewett The Country of the Pointed Firs Sarah Orne Jewett Note SARAH ORNE JEWETT (1849-1909) was born and died in South Berwick, Maine. Her father was the region's most distinguished doctor and, as a child, Jewett often accompanied him on his round of patient visits. She began writing poetry at an early age and when she was only 19 her short story "Mr. Bruce" was accepted by the Atlantic Monthly. Her association with that magazine continued, and William Dean Howells, who was editor at that time, encouraged her to publish her first book, Deephaven (1877), a collection of sketches published earlier in the Atlantic Monthly. Through her friendship with Howells, Jewett became acquainted with Boston's literary elite, including Annie Fields, with whom she developed one of the most intimate and lasting relationships of her life. The Country of the Pointed Firs (1896) is considered Jewett's finest work, described by Henry James as her "beautiful little quantum of achievement."
