内容説明・目次
内容説明
Eliza Haywood is one of the eighteenth century's most unjustly neglected authors, known to modern readers, if at all, as the winner of the notorious contest in Pope's Dunciad. As a writing woman writing for women who daredto speak her mind in public, Haywood was a dangerous entity for her contemporaries; her works were widely condemned as unfeminine, licentious, and immodest. In this edition of three of her novellas, Haywood is revealed as a writerof great spirit and daring with her dramatic descriptions of the battle of the sexes.
