Vem daterade Anne Lister?

Anne Lister, née le 3 avril 1791 à Halifax (Yorkshire) et morte dans le Caucase le 22 septembre 1840, est une femme de lettres et exploratrice anglaise. Elle est connue au Royaume-Uni et en France pour des raisons totalement différentes : dans son pays, pour sa personnalité, son journal et sa réputation de première lesbienne moderne ; en France, pour avoir réalisé la première ascension amateur du Vignemale.

Ann Walker (20 May 1803 – 25 February 1854) was an Englishwoman, married in Britain's first known lesbian wedding, to diarist and fellow Yorkshire landowner Anne Lister. Their union was solemnised by taking the sacrament together on Easter Sunday in 1834 at Holy Trinity Church, Goodramgate, York, which bears a commemorative plaque acknowledging the event. Walker inherited half of her family's estate, Crow Nest, located in Lightcliffe, West Yorkshire, near Shibden Hall, Lister's family estate, in Calderdale. Both women inherited their respective estates during the early 19th century, when primogeniture, the custom of granting lands and property to the oldest surviving son, dominated European law and society. They were travelling abroad together when Lister fell ill and died. Research into their diaries and letters suggest Walker may have experienced bouts of anxiety and depression throughout portions of her life.
