漢娜・莫爾（Hannah More 1745 年 2 月 2 日 —1833 年 9 月 7 日）是一名英格蘭宗教作家、慈善家、詩人、劇作家，她是當時倫敦社交界、文藝圈裡的名人，藍襪子的領袖。



早年

她出生於布里斯托魚塘區（Fishponds），是當地一所學校校長雅各布・摩爾（1700-83）的第四個女兒（共五個）。她的父親是她的啟蒙老師，教會了她拉丁語和數學，她的姐姐們又教過她法語。
1758 年，其父雅各布在布里斯托三一街（Trinity Street）創辦了一所女子寄宿學校，由漢娜的姐姐瑪麗和伊莉莎白運營，雅各布自己則在石山區（Stony Hill）創辦了一所男子學校。12 歲時，漢娜進入姐姐們的學校學習，畢業後在那裡執教。

1767 年漢娜為了和薩默塞特郡 Wraxall 村一名叫威廉・特納的男子訂婚，退掉了自己在學校的股份。但過了六年婚禮還是沒有舉辦，特納也沒有確定日期的意願，於是二人的婚約在 1773 年解除。這可能一度導致漢娜精神崩潰，她因此前往濱海韋斯頓附近的上山村（Uphill）療養。她最後從特納那裡獲得了 200 鎊年金作為補償，這使得她能夠有充足的閒暇時間進行文學創作。



成年

她在教書時開始創作田園風格的劇作，以供她的女學生們表演。她的第一部作品是 1762 年完成的《The Search after Happiness》，到 1780 年代中期，它共售出 10,000 多本。

她在 1773 年冬和姐姐們一起前往倫敦，在那裡結識了塞繆爾・詹森、約書亞・雷諾茲和愛德蒙・伯克等當時文藝界的精英。詹森其實不太喜歡她，認為她太過奉承別人，還是一個蹩腳詩人。她參加了藍襪子運動，是伊莉莎白・蒙塔古沙龍的座上賓，並在那裡結識弗朗西斯・博斯科文、伊莉莎白・卡特、伊莉莎白・維西和赫斯特・沙蓬。

她的劇作在倫敦獲得了成功，其《珀西》在 1777 年 12 月於皇家歌劇院上演，大衛・加里克為這部作品寫了開場白和謝幕詞。

她在倫敦的生活並不順利，1785 年她在薩默塞特郡北部的靈頓買下一棟別墅，和姐妹瑪莎開始避世的隱居生活。在那裡，她寫成了《尋找妻子的科勒布斯》（Coelebs in Search of a Wife）等多部作品，並在那裡去世，葬在當地的諸聖教堂中，留下的遺產捐給了教會和慈善機構。
