Beskrivelse af Cecilia
Cecilia: Or Memoirs Of An Heiress is a novel written by Frances Burney, a prominent English writer of the 18th century. The novel tells the story of Cecilia Beverley, a young heiress who inherits a large fortune from her uncle. However, her inheritance comes with a condition: she must marry a man approved by her uncle's will. As Cecilia navigates the complex social world of 18th century England, she is courted by several suitors, each with their own agenda. Along the way, she encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a scheming social climber, a wealthy but selfish aristocrat, and a kind-hearted clergyman. As Cecilia struggles to balance her desire for independence with her duty to her family and society, she must also confront the harsh realities of life for women in the 18th century, including the limited options available to them and the constant threat of scandal. Through Cecilia's journey, Burney offers a nuanced portrayal of the challenges facing women in her time, while also exploring themes of love, duty, and the complexities of social class. With its vivid characters, intricate plot, and rich historical detail, Cecilia: Or Memoirs Of An Heiress remains a beloved classic of English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
