Early life and marriage Catherine Hall was born near Birmingham in 1690, the daughter of poor parents. At the age of 16, she obtained employment as a servant within the household of a Warwickshire farmer named Hayes.

Catherine (Thackeray Novel)
''Catherine: A Story'' was the first full-length work of fiction produced by William Makepeace Thackeray. It first appeared in serialized instalments in ''Fraser's Magazine'' between May 1839 and February 1840, credited to "Ikey Solomons, Esq. Junior". Thackeray's original intention in writing it was to criticize the Newgate school of crime fiction, exemplified by Bulwer-Lytton and Harrison Ainsworth, whose works Thackeray felt glorified criminals. Thackeray even included Dickens in this criticism for his portrayal of the good-hearted streetwalker Nancy and the charming pickpocket, the Artful Dodger, in ''Oliver Twist''. Ainsworth's ''Jack Sheppard'' portrayed a real-life prison breaker and thief from the eighteenth century in flattering terms. In contrast, Thackeray sought out a real-life criminal whom he could portray in as unflattering terms as possible. He settled on Catherine Hayes, another eighteenth-century criminal, who was burned at the stake for murdering her husb ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
