Loved this, no idea her life was so hard. Her mother was both her savior and tormentor. Astonishing she was able to get published as a woman in that time.
Not unfamiliar with Ada Lovelace's life story, I was captivated by your telling of it as if watching the oil-laden brush of an artist painting a masterpiece. You truly captured Ada's spirit, brilliance, wonder, and struggles with your beautiful tribute. Thank you so much for sharing it, as you brought joy to my heart in the interlude.
My family is from Greece. Lord Byron is considered 'Hero of Greece'. My grandparents had his picture hanging above other Greek Orthodox icons in their house.
Thank you, it means a lot to hear that, as I know videos on her won't become very popular as her story has been covered so many times. But I wanted to cover her full story. Therefore it means a lot to hear such kind words and your recognition of the amount of research that went into her story. ❤
Your videos are so well researched and told. Shame people don't comment more. I hope one day your channel gets the credit it deserves. So many salacious videos, where as you take the time to tell the story in such a beautiful way. Thank you.
What an amazing woman, of intellect and courage! It's a miracle she survived her horrible childhood and her tyrannical mother to achieve what she did. Thanks for a great video.
A stunning biography of a truly worthy subject. This was so well done and absent any sensationalism. Lady Byron was born with natural gifts seen so rarely and she navigated well, considering the dark she also had to endure. If only her Mother had been normal!
I often wonder what she could have become had she had a more normal family life. Shame so few remember her contributions to computer programming today.
What a blessed but tragic figure ... It seems she paid for every iota of brilliance with unspeakable suffering. Amazing biography yet again, thank you. Excellent!
I have to say, I love your videos. And what is great is that you try and tell it from all sides in such a short time, despite the horrible actions of Annabella, you still speak of all the amazing things she did. You don't try to control the narrative.
Thank you for this documentary. Your voice is both soothing and confident. She was so privileged yet, because of her mother, her life was sometimes dismal beyond belief.
Thank you for a story that needs telling. A woman then and today can achieve so much more if society would change to let them do so. I appreciate your reset h and tell us who love to listen.
And, that way of thinking is opposite of everything that Jesus did on the cross. He bore our sins so that we would not have to suffer. Her mother was really cold and maybe evil.
What an amazing and interesting story! I wonder what had happened to make her mother abuse her so? Also are there still descendants from her? Absolutely fascinating as I’ve lived in Silicon Valley for decades and hadn’t heard about this. I will be happy to pass this on. Much love and appreciation from California.❤️🍀🌈😇🙏🏻❣️
Hi Michele! Thank you so much for your kind words and interest in Ada Lovelace's story. Her mother, Annabella Milbanke, was very strict, possibly influenced by her desire to suppress any traits she believed Ada inherited from her father, Lord Byron, whom she viewed as having a "dangerous" and unstable character. Annabella wanted to ensure Ada didn't exhibit similar traits, leading to her harsh treatment. Such a shame so few people have heard of such a remarkable woman. Ada had three children, and there are indeed living descendants today, primarily in the United Kingdom. It's wonderful to hear from someone in Silicon Valley! Much love and appreciation from this side too. Thanks for sharing! 😊
Excellent Thankyou. Lovely to hear her story again. Many years ago I visited Newstead abbey and the graves and off course here in Venice her fathers stay is commemorated with a plaque on the grand canal which I see most days 💐💐💐
For her mother to want her daughter to suffer to “ pay for her sins” goes against EVERYTHING that Jesus did on the cross for us. HE doesn’t want us to suffer. How cruel her mother was. Wow.
Lady Caroline Lamb, always claimed that she was the one to coin that phrase, but there was no proof.. "Mad, bad and dangerous to know" the former lover you mentioned WAS Lady Caroline Lamb, NOT to mention the man, who had the GREAT misfortune of marrying her, The Honorable William Lamb, & after her death, on 25 January 1828, he became 2nd Viscount Melbourne & then, Prime Minister. What a Life she led.
How sad, tragic,mother became paranoid , ,,then became cruel,,such a talented woman,as her daughter became in spite of her awful mother,was ,she was a bad parent, Did not have to punish the child at all ,just because of her father,a cold hard woman
Did she know that her father died in Greece with her picture? Many of her personal papers were destroyed so it's a challenge to piece together her feelings and thoughts. Thank you for this doc. I was aware of her maths work but not much about her life, other yhan she wss titled.
She knew many years later, as it was told to her. You are right, her mother destroyed so much. I would love to read her own words and feelings about things, we get them in the letters she sent, but her personal diaries would be wonderful to have.
She really does, it was why it was impossible for her to Elope. Her father was one of the most famous men in the country. Despite no photographs at that time, everyone knew what Lord Byron looked like.
I really enjoy bios on people more obscured by time but relevent in their own time. I especially like your presentation. It sounds professional and you don't try to make it cutesy or modern by being silly and, my personal favorite, f bombs and general cuss words. I can create my own 'coolness' when I need that noise, thank you very much. You have a nice narration voice, not nasal, and you use grammar rules! Yay! I look forward to more of your work.
Thank you, my hope is as the channel grows I can cover more people who time has forgotten. I try and create a mix at present as the lesser known people tend to get fewer views, I hope as people come to see the work we put in, that will change.
Byron merely lived his desires without regret. That is actually what we came to do. This in no manner infers that we should not be responsible parents. It is best pursue our dreams while being honest with those that are our prospective partners. Bryon lived in a time with Social rules and expectations that foster the Lower Mind and a fair bit of manipulation of others. No doubt she shared her Dad's zest for experiencing life. Her illness the result of her inner fears ... for all is a result of our: "Thoughts + Feelings X Beliefs" = Our Frequency = Our Reality The "Universal Law of Attraction" is Absolute. Not knowing gave her a continued hope. Upon emerging into Nonphysical, she no doubt was washed in Joy of Divine Love.
Lady Lovelace turned out to be so important to, e.g., Alan Turing, et al., and helped the Allies to win WWII. The deprivation of maternal affection and paternal presence must have contributed to her early demise. I hope she is in heaven now with the father she never got to know. God rest her soul.
Turing gave her a lot of credit as well, which helped bring her back in to the public consciousness, I am not sure in the end who had a more grim fate. Turing or Ada.
How fascinating! The world has indeed changed dramatically over the 20th century. England, with its rich history and majestic estates, has seen a significant transformation. The decline of aristocratic power and the end of many special privileges reshaped the landscape. Grand properties, once symbols of opulence, have been repurposed into more accessible housing. I’m genuinely curious about your perspective on these changes. Do you find solace in the availability of affordable (well relatively affordable) flats and the increase in housing options? Or do you lament the loss of the grandeur and history those estates embodied? I have a home in Nottingham, though I reside elsewhere, and my time at university in England left a lasting impression on me. As an American, I’ve always romanticized England's past-a land of elegance and tradition. Your firsthand experience would offer a unique insight into how these changes have impacted the essence of your country. How do you feel about the evolution of your homeland?
A mother of pure evil...to allow her brilliant daughter to suffer dreadfully for religious reasons is grounds for abuse...she should have been arrested.
Her mother hated her for her intellect. Ada was obviously the better mathematician, therefore had to pay for it, that was her sin. Shame upon her diabolical mother.
Can I ask where you found the quote about " the shadows of your fear" ? I know you say it's from a letter to her mother but I can't find a source from a google search. I like the quote but I dislike using things like this unless I can be fairly certain of its authenticity.
Yes. What a brilliant mind though. Two brilliant parents , one with a self destructive nature, the other with an intense desire to control. Such a shame that so few remember her now, she could have been a mind for the ages had she had a different upbringing.
Fascinating story! I must admit I did not know anything about these characters, as I read some of the comments I had to google Wikipidia to learn a little bit about them. So much information wow! Lord Byron, Charles Babbage and Alan Turing (British Mathematician) brilliant men. Those for another time. ADA LOVELACE; she was a genius, smart and pretty highly intelligent lady. She was way ahead of her time. Her mom was as ugly a person can be from Ada's birth til her agonizing death and did not even attend her funeral, for that I felt so sorry, poor Ada suffered a lot. She died very young as her father did. But in the end Ada was buried along side her dad Lord Byron, that was a blessing. RIP sweet Ada. This story was mesmerizing, thank you for your work and research very much appreciated. I have so much to catch-up 😀 Take care and stay safe.💐❤
What’s scandalous about this woman’s life? Tragic most definitely! In general I like what you present here. But most of these women’s lives were not so scandalous if we look at the times and circumstances in which they lived.
@@MythicMindScape21 I understand. I did say to look at these women in their time. But words attract in our social media age. I might wonder if the title were flipped as in The Tragic and Scandalous life of so and so. I watch and enjoy all of your videos and I’m happy to say I’ve known about most of the women you’ve selected. Any woman of such a repressive past that lived and did as she pleased. Was easily tagged in derogatory terms. I hope I’m expressing myself adequately. Because I really do enjoy your content. Thank you.
@@Menapho Ada was not even allowed at the time into the British Museum's reading room to read her own father's work because she was a woman. In addition, her own work she published under her initials for fear that it would not be looked at seriously because of her being a woman. To me many of these women are pioneers, but at the time many would be clutching their pearls at a girl receiving the education Ada did, as 'it simply was not suitable for a wife'. For other's perhaps they mind her gambling, or even that she needed a letter from her husband to gamble, or again the opium use, or the fact that her mother denied her the use of it, or the twice pawning of the family jewels. Or the supposed affair with the neighbor's son. The term scandalous now, is so devoid of meaning; but my next video will be on The Rebel Heiress. Lady Diana Cooper. And my one before this was on 'The Remarkable Life of Nelly Bly'. The ones with Scandal in the title may get shown the most across the Algorithm. But I have only used the actual word 'scandal' in one of my last 4 postings. When I saw it as fitting. I wish more people would watch the Nellie Bly video, and I hope everyone enjoys my Lady Diana Cooper one.
Okay, Ada Lovelace is a favorite of mine, after reading the glorious graphic novel, "The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage", by Sydney Padua; but I would have enjoyed your show way more if you hadn't used all the anachronistic turn-of-the-century film footage, entirely out of the timeline of Ada's life!!! Also, there were no photos for her mother to hide from her, because there was no photography until way later; she may have even been dead before the advent of photography. I am at least glad that such an amazing woman , an Alan Turing a hundred years before Alan Turing, is finally receiving the notice she deserves.
Loved this, no idea her life was so hard. Her mother was both her savior and tormentor. Astonishing she was able to get published as a woman in that time.
Her mother was a diabolical wretch
Not unfamiliar with Ada Lovelace's life story, I was captivated by your telling of it as if watching the oil-laden brush of an artist painting a masterpiece.
You truly captured Ada's spirit, brilliance, wonder, and struggles with your beautiful tribute.

Thank you so much. Such a beautiful thing to say.
My family is from Greece. Lord Byron is considered 'Hero of Greece'. My grandparents had his picture hanging above other Greek
Orthodox icons in their house.
Being brilliant, and born a woman, at the time of Ada's life, was basically an insurmountable struggle. 😢
This was a fantastic telling of Lady Lovelace's life. I knew of her achievements but not of her frailties nor her abhorent mother. Thank you.
Thank you, it means a lot to hear that, as I know videos on her won't become very popular as her story has been covered so many times. But I wanted to cover her full story. Therefore it means a lot to hear such kind words and your recognition of the amount of research that went into her story. ❤
@@MythicMindScape21 I just subscribed. I have been watching too much drivel on youtube.
My grandmother who raised me was very much like her mother…😢
Your videos are so well researched and told. Shame people don't comment more. I hope one day your channel gets the credit it deserves. So many salacious videos, where as you take the time to tell the story in such a beautiful way. Thank you.
Love her voice too
What an amazing woman, of intellect and courage! It's a miracle she survived her horrible childhood and her tyrannical mother to achieve what she did. Thanks for a great video.
I agree, such a shame her life was cut so short.
I became aware of Ada whilst at university. I still find her fascinating. Great post, thank you.
Thank you
A stunning biography of a truly worthy subject. This was so well done and absent any sensationalism. Lady Byron was born with natural gifts seen so rarely and she navigated well, considering the dark she also had to endure. If only her Mother had been normal!
I often wonder what she could have become had she had a more normal family life. Shame so few remember her contributions to computer programming today.
Never knew about her life. Amazing and sad.
Thank you for sharing the stories of so many remarkable women. You are a a star!
I love doing these stories, I hope one day more people will watch them; as these women were phenomenal.
Sad...but brilliantly told.
What a blessed but tragic figure ... It seems she paid for every iota of brilliance with unspeakable suffering. Amazing biography yet again, thank you. Excellent!
Thank you
That poor girl the mother was a psycho classic case of narcissist wow great story ❤

Yes, imagine the things she could have achieved had she had a calm home life.
Thank you for a story that needs telling. A woman then and today can achieve so much more if society would change to let them do so. I appreciate your reset h and tell us who love to listen.
Thank you, she was truly remarkable, it is astonishing how she is almost forgotten today. Imagine what she could have achieved.
Why must the dying suffer, avail them any means possible to perish with integrity. 🕊️
And, that way of thinking is opposite of everything that Jesus did on the cross. He bore our sins so that we would not have to suffer. Her mother was really cold and maybe evil.
Perhaps her mother was secretly jealous of her brilliance...it seems likely.

What an excellent job you did of this. No nonsense and no annoying loud music. ❤
Great video once again.I love your work~ty
Thank you, I loved writing Ada's story.
I love your biographies, very well researched and with detailed information, all very interesting.
Thank you so much.
By modern standards ADA was a victim of abuse. Poor girl
Excellent Thankyou. Lovely to hear her story again. Many years ago I visited Newstead abbey and the graves and off course here in Venice her fathers stay is commemorated with a plaque on the grand canal which I see most days 💐💐💐
Venice? I am very jealous.

Awesome channel I have been bin watch them all 😮🎉❤
Thank you so much.
Beautifully told! Thank you for sharing your work and these fascinating lives!
Glad you like them!
Thank you so much for this informative and interesting documentary. 🙏🏻 May Lady Ada Lovelace RIP. I truly enjoyed listening to your video.

The narration and the video is excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed and will look for more. Thank you.

Her mother was evil.
I was glad when Ada passed on so her evil, inhumane mother could not punish & torture her anymore.
Did she know that her father died in Greece with her picture? Many of her personal papers were destroyed so it's a challenge to piece together her feelings and thoughts.
Thank you for this doc. I was aware of her maths work but not much about her life, other yhan she wss titled.

She was indeed remarkable.
Incredibly interesting. Just found your channel and have subscribed. Great job.
Thanks glad you liked it.
She looks so much like her father! It's amazing, she looks like a female version of him. No wonder her mother was so hard on her😢 Sad.
She really does, it was why it was impossible for her to Elope. Her father was one of the most famous men in the country. Despite no photographs at that time, everyone knew what Lord Byron looked like.
