In page Edward Bulwer-Lytton:

"

Bulwer-Lytton had long suffered from a disease of the ear, and for the last two or three years of his life lived in Torquay nursing his health.[13] After an operation to cure deafness, an abscess formed in the ear and burst; he endured intense pain for a week and died at 2 am on 18 January 1873, just short of his 70th birthday.[13] The cause of death was unclear but it was thought the infection had affected his brain and caused a fit.[13] Rosina outlived him by nine years. Against his wishes, Bulwer-Lytton was honoured with a burial in Westminster Abbey.[14] His unfinished history Athens: Its Rise and Fall was published posthumously.[citation needed]
