The vehemently republican MS was held close by the family and not published till 1806. Julius Hutchinson issued special large-paper copies and boosted subscriptions; it became a best-seller.

Julius Hutchinson did cut many passages he thought readers would dislike and only in 1973 did James Sutherland issue an edition from the original MS. N. H. Keeble followed with a modernized edition. The new edition will for the first time include in full an earlier version written during the war.

These are the editions of Lucretius, by Denys Lambin and Daniel Pareus, which Lucy Hutchinson would have consulted 'in a roome where my children practizd the severall quallities they were taught, with their Tutors, & I numbred the sillables of my translation by the threds of the canvas I wrought in'

Introducing Lucy Hutchinson’s writings in a few posts. In the 1650s, translation of Lucretius, De rerum natura, a bold atheist epic. How did a Puritan engage with materialist vision of history? Texts available in Oxford Works vol. 1, with Latin text and full commentary; text only ed. Hugh de Quehen.

Lucy Hutchinson is now on Bluesky!

For one remarkable woman in the #17thC, the Tower wasn’t just a fortress—it was home, hospital, laboratory, and sanctuary. My novel brings to life the incredible story of Lady Lucy Apsley, who raised a family within these forbidding walls. #Skystorians
