By the close of the eighteenth century, the theatrical memoir had
become a popular and established genre. The texts brought together
in this ten-volume facsimile collection present the lives of some
of the most celebrated actresses of their day. As well as offering
fascinating accounts of the late eighteenth-century stage, these
memoirs also provide revealing insights into contemporary
constructions of gender, sexuality and fame.
