格雷戈里夫人伊莎貝拉·奧古斯塔 (Isabella Augusta, Lady Gregory;1852年3月15日—1932年5月22日)[ 1] ,原姓珀斯 (Persse),是一名劇作家、民俗學家和劇院經理。她與葉芝 、爱德华·马丁 一起創辦了爱尔兰文学剧院 和阿比剧院 ,並為兩所劇院創作了大量的劇本。此外,她也以愛爾蘭神話 為本寫了不少小說。她是愛爾蘭文學復興 中的重要人物,該運動中的許多人物都曾到她家聚會。
她出生於愛爾蘭戈尔韦郡 罗克斯伯勒(Roxborough)的鄉紳家庭,母親弗蘭西斯·巴里和是第一代吉勒莫爾子爵斯坦迪什·奧格拉迪(Standish O'Grady, 1st Viscount Guillamore)的親戚,母親家就在羅克斯伯勒有大量地產,但很大一部分在愛爾蘭內戰 期間焚毀[ 2] 。伊莎貝拉在家裡接受教育,受家其保姆瑪麗·謝立丹(Mary Sheridan)影響很大。[ 3]
1880年3月4日,她和比她大35歲的鰥夫威廉·亨利·格雷戈里 爵士在都柏林的聖马提亚教堂(St Matthias' Church)結婚[ 4] 。格雷戈里當時剛剛卸任英屬錫蘭 總督,但也是一位很有文學修養的紳士。格雷戈里在倫敦有一所房子,夫婦二人大部分時間都在那裡度過,每週舉辦沙龍,遍邀文藝界名人。罗伯特·勃朗宁 、丁尼生 、約翰·艾佛雷特·米萊 和亨利·詹姆斯 都曾是她家的座上賓。1881年,格雷戈里夫人誕下一子羅伯特。羅伯特在第一次世界大戰 期間當上飛行員,最終戰死。葉芝 後來據此事寫成《預見自己死亡的愛爾蘭飛行員》(An Irish Airman Foresees His Death)。[ 5] [ 6]
