The Life of Harriot Stuart Written By Herself is a novel written by Charlotte Lennox. The book is a fictional autobiography of the eponymous character, Harriot Stuart, who recounts her life story in the first person. The novel is set in the 18th century and follows Harriot’s life from her childhood in Scotland to her travels across Europe and her eventual return to England. The book explores themes of love, marriage, class, gender, and social norms. Harriot’s journey is marked by her struggles to find her place in society and to reconcile her desires with the expectations of those around her. She faces challenges such as poverty, betrayal, and heartbreak, but also experiences moments of joy and fulfillment. Lennox’s writing style is characterized by her use of formal language and her attention to detail. The novel is also notable for its portrayal of strong female characters and its commentary on the limitations placed on women in society. Overall, The Life of Harriot Stuart Written By Herself is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a glimpse into the life of a woman in 18th century Europe.When he had finished reading, he cast a tender glance at me; and, looking over the last verse again, ''I hope, miss, said he, you will have no reason to make this affecting complaint. Fortune can never be so unjust as to make you seel any of her rigours.'' ''Ah, how much are you deceived, sir, interrupted I, fortune has always been my enemy; and I have experienced the most cruel effects of her hate, almost from the very moment of my birth.''This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
