艾麗西亞·比伊克(英語:Alicia Bewicke,1845年—1926年7月31日),號阿希巴爾德·立德夫人(Mrs. Archibald Little),中文習稱立德夫人,英國旅遊作家,1887-1906年來華,創立天足會宣導清末婦女不再纏足聞名。亦以其清末四川的遊記與照片聞名。1886年(41歲)與丈夫阿希巴爾德·立德結婚,丈夫是開拓四川航運的英國商人,立德夫人藉機在四川三峽遊歷。著作有:《在中國的婚事》(1899)、《親密接觸中國》(1899)、《穿藍色長袍的國度》(1901)、《北京指南》(1904),《李鴻章,他的生平和時代》、《北京我家花園的周圍》(1905,清尚書貴慶宅)。對清末官場、科舉、纏足、鴉片都有深刻描寫。
生平
生於葡萄牙外島馬德拉。其夫立德反而不及她聞名,列傳一般單列立德夫人而不列立德,甚為少有。
