The Seduction Narrative in Britain, 1747–1800
Binhammer, Katherine (University of Alberta)
The seduction of a virtuous young heroine was an immensely popular plot in eighteenth-century literature, most famously in Samuel Richardson's Clarissa. This book surveys seduction narratives within the context of the new ideal of marriage-for-love and shows how these tales tell varying stories of women's emotional and sexual lives.
