Margaret Anne Doody

Frances Burney

The Life in the Works

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Treating Frances Burney (1752-1840) with the seriousness usually reserved for later novelists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Margaret Anne Doody combines biographical narrative with informed literary criticism as she analyses not only Burney's published novels, but her plays, fragments of novels, poems, and other works never published.
