Letters 1899

George Moore published no new books and few articles in 1899. He doesn’t seem to have worked much on the composition of Sister Teresa (the second part of a duology that began with Evelyn Innes). But he can be seen traveling to Bayreuth for the Wagner Festival, encouraging German translation of his fiction, and developing plays for the emergent Irish Literary Theatre. His recent literary successes on top of income from his Irish property make him seem nonchalant about earning money (though he scrutinized the accounts of his publisher). The large investment of time in the Irish Literary Theatre was presumably uncompensated.

There are 40 extant letters of George Moore from the year 1899.
