Birthplace of Richard Brinsley Sheridan in Dorset Street, Dublin Frances Sheridan Thomas Sheridan RICHARD BRINSLEY SHERIDAN (1751 - 1816) playwright and orator Born 30 th Oct 1751, 12 Upper Dorset Street, Dublin Son of Thomas Sheridan and Frances Chamberlaine Sheridan; educated at Harrow. His first attempt at literature, a three-act farce, was written in collaboration with a school friend. In 1771 the family settled in Bath and the young Sheridan fell in love with Elizabeth Linley, the ‘Maid of Bath’, a young woman of great beauty and musical talent, and eloped with her to France. After marriage they settled in London, and although Elizabeth’s voice would have made their fortune, Sheridan would not allow her to sing professionally. To support their extravagant way of life he turned to writing for the stage in real earnest. The Rivals , produced at Covent Garden in 1775, shows the hand of the born dramatist and quickly became popular. This was followed by two equally popular but poorly written farces. In 1776 Sheridan, now an established playwright, bought half the patent of Drury Lane Theatre from Garrick for £35,000, with the help of his father-in-law and a friend, and in 1778 he bought the remaining half for £45,000.

RICHARD BRINSLEY SHERIDAN ( Richard Brinsley Butler Sheridan (October 30, 1751 - June 29, 1816), dramatist, came of a family several members of which distinguished themselves in the arts and professions. His grandfather, the schoolmaster Thomas Sheridan, was Swift's friend; his father, also Thomas Sheridan, was an actor and theatre manager; his mother, Frances Chamberlaine Sheridan (who died when Richard was not yet fifteen), was a novelist and dramatist. He was born in Dublin, but when he was a small child his parents moved to London and at nine he joined them there and never again saw his native country. (His ancestors were Anglo-Irish.) His father was his first teacher, but from 1762 to 1768 he was sent to Harrow, following which he was given private tutors. He never attended a university. In 1770 his father moved to Bath, where he became a teacher of elocution. Young Richard formed a close friendship with Nathaniel Holhed, then an Oxford student, and the two boys made a metrical translation of the epistles of Aristaenetus, a Greek writer of the fifth or sixth century, then wrote a farce, Jupiter, which they endeavored in vain to have accepted by either Garrick or Foote. In 1772, before his twenty-first birthday, Sheridan eloped to France with Elizabeth Anne Linley, a beautiful girl of sixteen and an extremely gifted singer, daughter of a well-known composer. The elopement was innocentthe object was to enable Elizabeth to enter a nunnery to escape the unpleasant attentions of one Major Matthews, reputed a married man; the two youngsters were secretly married in Calais. Both fathers were furious and hauled their children home again. Sheridan then fought two duels with Matthews, in the first of which he disarmed his opponent, but in the second of which he was badly wounded. To end the whole affair, as he thought, the elder Sheridan then sent his son to Waltham Abbey, Essex, where as a cure for love he was set to study mathematics. The next year he was entered in the Middle Temple (though he was never called to the bar); and a week later, with her father's consent but against the wishes of his own, he and Elizabeth were married again.

Elkins has been a painter and an art teacher, and seemingly remains a student of alchemy. He advises readers to consider painting the attempt to make something meaningful out of powdered rock and water as akin to alchemy, whose practitioners strove to make meaning and power out of chemical substances they did not understand by methods that were uncertain. "When nothing is known," Mr. Elkins points out, "anything is possible. An alchemist who added 'aqua regia' to 'luna' might not have had any idea what could happen. An artist who mixes salt into a lithograph, or beats water into oil paint, is taking the same kind of chance." In the author's view, substances, even colors, have character, and will exert it regardless of an artist's intention. This is a novel way of considering paintings, and excitingly different from standard art criticism. Balls by Nanci Kincaid.

SHERIDAN, Richard Brinsley Born: October 1751, in Dublin, Ireland Died: July 7, 1816, in London, England Sheridan is the playwright credited for resuscitating English drama during the late eighteenth century. He was born into a talented and well educated family. His father, Thomas Sheridan, had an M.A. from Trinity and a reputation second only to David Garrick as an actor. Thomas was manager of the Smock Alley Theater in Dublin, and the author of Lectures on Elocution , published in 1762, which influenced acting and rhetoric during that period. Sheridan's mother, Francis Chamberlaine Sheridan, was a novelist and playwright, most noted for Memoirs of Miss Sidney Biddulph: Extracted from her Own Journal, published in 1761. His grandfather was a Oxford graduate and clergyman who established a school in Dublin which earned the family more than £1000 a year. Sheridan was baptized on November 4, 1751 but his exact birthday is not known. He was privately tutored in Dublin until the family moved to England in 1762. There, Sheridan attended Harrow School with the intent of becoming a lawyer. At school, he was renowned for his pranks and practical jokes but was never caught by his masters, Dr. Sumner and Dr. Parr. He was a good student and poet and upon matriculation he came home to be privately tutored in law when he was eighteen. However, he was diverted from his legal career by love. While visiting Bath he was smitten by Elizabeth Linley, eighteen, also known as the Maid of Bath. Sheridan began a romance with the beautiful, intelligent, musician and professional singer. She was lured away from her many other rich and famous admirers by Sheridan's devotion, good- looks, and love poetry.
