JESSE, JOHN HENEAGE (1815-1874)

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 336 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JEE-JUN
JESSE, JOHN HENEAGE (1815-1874) ,
English
  historian, son of
Edward
  Jesse, was educated at
Eton
 , and afterwards
became a clerk in the secretary's department of the admiralty. He died in London on the 7th of July 1874. His poem on Mary Queen of Scots was published about 1831, and was followed by a collection of poems entitled Tales of the Dead. He also wrote a drama, Richard III., and a fragmentary poem entitled London. None of these ventures achieved any success, but his numerous historical works are written with vivacity and
interest
 , and, in their own style, are an important contribution to the history of England. They include Memoirs of the
Court
  of England during the Reign of the Stuarts (1840), Memoirs of the
Court
  of England from the Revolution of 1688 to the Death of George II. (1843), George Selwyn and his Contemporaries (1843, new ed. 1882), Memoirs of the Pretenders and their Adherents (1845), Memoirs of Richard the Third and his Contemporaries (1861), and Memoirs of the
Life
  and Reign of King George the Third (1867). The titles of these works are sufficiently indicative of their character. They are sketches of the
principal
  f ersonages and of the social details of various periods in the history of England rather than complete and comprehensive historical narratives. In addition to these works Jesse wrote Literary and Historical Memorials of London (1847), London and its Celebrities (185o), and a new edition of this
work
  as London: its Celebrated Characters and Remarkable Places (1871). His Memoirs of Celebrated Etonian appeared in 1875.
A collected edition containing most of his works in thirty volumes was published in London in 1901.
