Prodigal Daughters: Susanna Rowson's Early American Women - Published by the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture and the University of North Carolina Press
Marion Rust
Susanna Rowson - novelist, actress, and playwright - bears resemblance to the character in her creation, Charlotte Temple. This novel shows how an early form of American sentimentalism mediated the shifting balance between autonomy and submission that is key to understanding both Rowson's work and the lives of early American women.
