James See also:Otis (q.v.), was See also:born at See also:Barnstable, See also:Mass., and in 1754 married James Warren (1726—1808) of See also:Plymouth Mass., a See also:college friend of her See also:brother. Her See also:literary inclinations were fostered by both these men, and she began See also:early to write poems and See also:prose essays. As member of the See also:Massachusetts See also:House of Representatives (1766—1774) and its See also:speaker (1776—1777 and 1787—1788), member (1774 and 1775) and See also:president (1775) of the Provincial See also:Congress, and paymaster-See also:general in 1775, James Warren took a leading See also:part in the events of the American revolutionary See also:period, and his wife followed its progress with keen See also:interest. Her gifts of See also:satire were utilized in her See also:political dramas, The Adulator (1773) and The See also:Group (1775); and See also:John See also:- ADAMS

Adams, whose wife See also:Abigail was Mercy Warren's See also:close friend, encouraged her to further efforts. Her tragedies, " The See also:Sack of See also:Rome " and " The Ladies of See also:Castile," were included in her Poems, Dramatic and See also:Miscellaneous (179o), dedicated to General Washing-ton. Apart from their See also:historical interest among the beginnings of American literature, Mercy Warren's poems have no permanent value. In 18o5 she published a See also:History of the American Revolution, which was coloured by somewhat outspoken See also:personal See also:criticism and was bitterly resented by John Adams (see his See also:correspondence, published by the Massachusetts Historical Society, 1878). James Warren died in ,8o8, and his wife followed him on the 19th of See also:October 1814.
