SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Frances Burney (1752-1840) was the most successful female novelist of the eighteenth century. Her first novel Evelina was a publishing sensation; her follow-up novels Cecilia and Camilla were regarded as among the best fiction of the time and were much admired by Jane Austen. This Companion is the first volume to cover all her works, including her novels, plays, journals, and letters, in a comprehensive and accessible way. It also includes discussion of her critical reputation, and a guide to further reading."--Jacket.
