用法筆記

Maxine Elliott is the stage name of Jessie Dermot. She is remembered as a major figure in early 20th-century theatre, but her name is less familiar to modern readers than contemporaries like Sarah Bernhardt. The name 'Elliott' alone (without 'Maxine') in a historical text may refer to other notable Elliott family members, such as her sister Gertrude Elliott, also an actress.
