Описание книги

Patronage was among the first novels with a thesis and as such, it opened the way for Sir Walter Scott's historical novels.In the novel, Edgeworth focuses on and scrupulously explores the various types of patronage and the many forms it takes in all strata of English society. Despite the rigor of her analysis, Edgeworth obtains a sense of subtlety through her ingenious use of variations in characterizations and a well diversified plot. The plot is made up of many incidents, great and small, that take the reader through a wide range of situations. Much like her contemporary, Jane Austen, Edgeworth had a gift for conveying social conventions through brilliant dialogue and acute moral observations.

Would it not have been as fair to have stated this at once?”

“No—because it would not have been the truth.”
