| Evidence: | Elizabeth Barrett to her mother, Mary Moulton-Barrett, c.1817 (originally in French):
'My very dear Mama / Excuse me, I do not at all like Manoeuvring, it is not to my taste. I
recognize that it is still Miss Edgeworth, but it is no longer the author of Patronage in reality
[...] I agree that Mr. Palmer is a charming character [...] except that one the novels you
choose for me always give me pleasure.' |
