概要

 In the world of literature, few novels capture the complexities of womens flirtations before marriage quite like Hannah Websters *The Coquette*. Lady Bidulph articulates the societal expectations with her remark, I did not speak 20 sentences before Sir Robert proposed to me, as she instructs her daughter on the art of courtship in *Memoirs of Miss Sidney Bidulph*. A coquette is often labeled as foolish, wicked, and immoral, but Peggy challenges this stereotype. With a keen awareness of the world around her, she flirts with intriguing men, reflecting on their connections—or lack thereof—from her unique perspective. Through her experiences, she explores the nuances of late Victorian society, shedding light on the lives of other marginalized individuals. This novel, rich in autobiographical elements, invites readers on a journey of self-discovery and societal reflection. - Summary by Stav Nisser.Copyright 19th and 20th Century Fiction 社会科学 科学
