Samuel Richardson (1689 1761) was a highly regarded printer and
influential novelist when he produced his final work of fiction,
The History of Sir Charles Grandison (1753). Like his other novels,
it was written in epistolary form, reflecting his lifelong interest
in letter writing and the letter as a genre. Covering the period
1750 1754, many of these fully annotated letters are published from
manuscript for the first time, or have been restored to their
complete original form. Recording Richardson's relationships with
leading cultural figures including Samuel Johnson, Colley Cibber
and Elizabeth Carter, the volume reveals his support for other
authors while struggling to complete his own 'story of a Good Man'.
This publishing saga also incorporates Richardson's responses to
the Irish piracy of his novel, and his exchanges with anonymous
fans, including those who attacked the novel's tolerance for
Catholicism and those who pleaded for a sequel."
