The History of Jemmy and Jenny JessamyUniversity Press of Kentucky, 2005 M12 9 - 456 páginas The History of Jemmy and Jenny Jessamy, originally published as three volumes in 1753, is the last work by the prolific English novelist Eliza Haywood. Out of print since the early nineteenth century and never available in an edited and fully-annotated modern edition such as this, HaywoodÕs novel is an important early example of the sentimental novel of domestic manners. In its depiction of marriage and courtship among the leisure class of the mid-eighteenth century, HaywoodÕs novel is remarkable for its unsentimental realism. |
