Autorenporträt
Frances Burney (1752–1840), also known as Fanny Burney and after her marriage as Madame d'Arblay, was an English satirical novelist, diarist, and playwright, who is best recognized for her novels which explore the lives of English aristocrats and the issues faced by women in the 18th century. Her literary style married wit with social critique, most notably in her novel 'Camilla' (Burney, 1796), which keenly depicts the trials and tribulations of growing up and the societal pressures that shape women's lives and choices. 'Camilla' not only offers an elaborate commentary on morality and the nuances of matrimonial pursuits but also delivers a rich and detailed account of contemporary manners, making it an insightful study of the period. Burney's first novel, 'Evelina' (Burney, 1778), brought her immediate fame with its innovative epistolary form and fresh female perspective. In her later works, Burney continued to use her sharp observational skills and incisive humor to portray the subtleties of social conduct and the complexities of human relationships. As a woman writer in the eighteenth century, Frances Burney triumphed over the period's gender norms to secure a place in the canon of English literature. Her works have inspired scholars and writers alike, resonating well into the 19th and 20th centuries, influencing authors such as Jane Austen with her blend of social commentary, nuanced characterization, and engaging storytelling.
