Samuel Richardson (1689-1761), the English writer and printer best known for his epistolary novels, including Pamela (1740) and Clarissa (1748), had preserved copies of his extensive correspondence with a view to its eventual publication, and these volumes, edited by Anna Laetitia Barbauld and first published in 1804, contain her selection from his papers. Richardson became a printer's apprentice in 1706 and for the rest of his life managed a successful printing business in addition to writing his highly popular and influential novels. After the success of Pamela, Richardson regularly corresponded with leading contemporary literary figures including Henry Fielding and Samuel Johnson. The letters provide fascinating insights into Richardson's life and literary and social activities. Volume 6 is devoted entirely to his lively correspondence with Lady Bradshaigh, discussing literature but also the writers' respective domestic affairs, and contemporary social concerns including the education of women and the behaviour of men. | The Correspondence of Samuel Richardson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
