- Note Relating to Cather
In One of Ours, Wilhelmina Schroeder-Schatz likens Claude Wheeler to Claude Melnotte, the name of the hero of Bulwer-Lytton's comedy.
In an 1898 Courier article, Cather writes: "Now the Lady of Lyons is not a great play; Bulwer was not a great man. But it certainly discounts half the stuff that is put on the bo ards today."
