Corinna of England, or a Heroine in the Shade; A Modern Romance

Published in 1809, E M Foster's The Corinna of England was one of the earliest British responses to the publication of Germaine de Stael's widely-read Corinne, or Italy (1807). This edition makes available a novel of fundamental importance for a complete and thorough understanding of the British reaction to Corinne as well as of its cultural, social and gender implications.
