Harriet Eleanor Hamilton King

Harriet Eleanor Hamilton King (1840–1920) was an English poet whose long narrative poems were inspired by the Italian struggle for unification, in which she took a warm interest. Her works include Aspromonte and Other Poems (1869) and The Disciples (1873).

Her heroic ballad “Baron Giovanni Nicotera”, on the Italian patriot imprisoned by the Bourbon government, is printed in Women Poets of the Victorian Era (1890).
