Helen Maria Williams (1761-1827) had a long and prolific career as a writer: she was a celebrated British poet, an influential translator of works of French literature and history, and an important British chronicler of the French Revolution. Williams and her mother and two sisters eventually settled in Paris, where she hosted a salon that was frequented by many of Europe's most important politicians, artists, writers, and thinkers.
