Omschrijving

The Female Quixote is a novel written by Charlotte Lennox in the 18th century. It tells the story of Arabella, a young woman who has grown up in seclusion, reading only romantic novels. She becomes so enamored with these stories that she begins to see the world around her as if it were a romance novel. As a result, she often misunderstands the intentions of those around her and creates awkward situations. Arabella's misadventures are both humorous and poignant, as she struggles to reconcile her fantasies with reality. Along the way, she meets a variety of characters, including a suitor who is initially put off by her eccentric behavior but eventually falls in love with her. The novel is a satire of the romantic novels that were popular at the time, and it pokes fun at the unrealistic expectations they created for women. It also explores themes of gender roles, social class, and the power of literature to shape our perceptions of the world. Overall, The Female Quixote is a witty and engaging novel that offers a unique perspective on the culture of the 18th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of literature or the evolution of gender roles in society.From her earliest Youth she had discovered a Fondness for Reading, which extremely delighted the Marquis; he permitted her therefore the Use of his Library, in which, unfortunately for her, were great Store of Romances, and, what was still more unfortunate, not in the original French, but very bad Translations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
