Autorenporträt
Frances Burney (13 June 1752 – 6 January 1840), also known as Fanny Burney and later as Madame d'Arblay, was a distinguished English satirical novelist, diarist, and playwright who was an influential literature figure in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Burney's literary style was characterized by her witty prose, engaging social critique, and unique portrayal of the lives of women during her time. Her first novel, 'Evelina; or, the History of a Young Lady's Entrance into the World' (1778), brought her immediate fame with its innovative narrative approach and keen social observations. She further cemented her reputation as a leading author with subsequent novels such as 'Cecilia: Or, Memoirs of an Heiress' (1782), 'Camilla: Or, A Picture of Youth' (1796), and 'The Wanderer; or, Female Difficulties' (1814). The compendium 'The Greatest Works of Frances Burney (Illustrated)' consolidates these prominent works, offering insight into her growth as a writer and the changing cultural landscape of her times. Her diaries, published posthumously, provided a vivid depiction of the literary and social milieu in which she lived and worked, including her later life at the court of King George III where she served as the Keeper of the Robes. Frances Burney's works continue to be of scholarly interest for their contributions to the development of the novel and the evolution of feminist literary tradition.
