The Letters of Sarah Scott (Hardcover)

Sarah Robinson Scott (1721-1795) was a writer, translator and social reformer, and younger sister of Elizabeth Robinson Montagu (1718-1800), the famous Bluestocking patron. While Scott's legacy presents her as a committed Anglican philanthropist, the letters she wrote to her sister reveal her to have been a witty, even savage, commentator on 18th-century life. While Scott's letters provide us with a window on to her own experiences and expectations, they must also be interpreted within 18th-century context. This is the first edition of Scott's letters to be published and presents all extant copies.
