The work traces the author’s personal experiences, reflections, and development as a woman scholar, particularly within the context of Victorian and Edwardian England. The book delves into Harrison's formative years, academic journey, and the broader cultural and intellectual shifts that shaped her life and work. The opening of this memoir recounts Harrison's childhood in Yorkshire, marked by vivid early impressions of Russia and Russian culture, family traditions, and a deep pride in her local roots. Harrison describes her upbringing with a mixture of humor and candor, providing insights into family dynamics, education by governesses, and the social expectations placed upon young women. Her anecdotes highlight the constraints and eccentricities of a Victorian education, her father's old-fashioned views, moments of childish ambition, and early encounters with literature and religion. Through personal recollections, she sets the stage for a thoughtful exploration of how her background and early experiences influenced her later academic passions and perspectives.
