Krátky popis
Lord Orville did me the honour to hand me to the coach, talking all
the way of the honour I had done him! O these fashionable
people!'Frances Burney's first and most enduringly popular novel is
a vivid, satirical, and seductive account of the pleasures and
dangers of fashionable life in late eighteenth-century London. As
she describes her heroine's entry into society, womanhood and,
inevitably, love, Burney exposes the vulnerability of female
innocence in an image-conscious and often cruel world where social
snobbery and sexual aggression are played out in the public arenas
of pleasure-gardens, theatre visits, and balls. But Evelina's
innocence also makes her a shrewd commentator on the excesses and
absurdities of manners and social ambitions - as well as attracting
the attention of the eminently eligible Lord Orville.Evelina, comic
and shrewd, is at once a guide to fashionable London, a satirical
attack on the new consumerism, an investigation of women's position
in the late eighteenth century, and a love story. The new
introduction and full notes to this edition help make this richness
all the more readily available to a modern reader.
