ISABEL FLORENCE HAPGOOD
ECUMENIST and JOURNALIST, 1929
Isabel Florence Hapgood (November 21, 1851 - June 26, 1928) was an U.S.
writer and translator of Russian texts.
Hapgood was born in Boston, the descendant of a long-established New
England family. She studied Germanic and Slavic languages, specializing
in Orthodox liturgical texts. She was one of the major figures in the
dialogue between Western Christianity and Orthodoxy. She traveled through
Russia between 1887 and 1889, meeting Leo Tolstoy. Hapgood died in New
