Repplier began her education at the Sacred Heart Convent, only to be expelled for her 'independent behavior'. Disinclined to conformity, she found her true vocation in writing. She honed her craft through reading, as she was a voracious consumer of literature, and became an influential literary figure at a time when the essay was a revered art form. Repplier's first essay was published in 1886 by the Atlantic Monthly, after which she secured her place in the literary scene with a prolific output of essays characterized by their incisive wit and an emphasis on cultural and historical critique.
