| Frances Burneyâ s journals and letters, composed between 1768 and 1839, contain a unique account of the creative, social, and commercial ambitions and achievements of an eighteenth-century female writer. Focusing on Burneyâ s literary life, this selection from her journals and correspondence combines Burneyâ s own accounts of the creation of her popular novels, her aspirations for her dramatic writings, and her reflections upon her letters and journals as literary productions in their own right. In addition to Burneyâ s letters and journal entries, this Broadview edition includes: selections from Burneyâ s Brief Reflections relative to the Emigrant French Clergy (1793) and Memoirs of Doctor Burney (1832); letters by family and friends about her literary activities; and contemporary reviews of The Diary and Letters of Madame dâ Arblay. |
