Book Description
The Memoirs of Miss Sidney Bidulph was hugely popular in circulating libraries in the years after its publication, and its emotional intensity was often remarked upon; Samuel Johnson wrote to Frances Sheridan, “I know not, Madam! that you have a right, upon moral principles, to make your readers suffer so much.” Sheridan traces Sidney Bidulph’s development in a complex epistolary novel spanning much of the protagonist’s life, and explores the tension between sexual desire and prescribed female conduct. In addition to an introduction that places the novel in the context of Sheridan’s feminism and of the early novel, this edition provides material on discourses of female conduct, letters between Sheridan and Samuel Richardson, and contemporary reviews.

Book Description
Frances Sheridan, nee Chamberlaine (1724- 1766) was an Irish novelist and playwright. In 1747, she married an actor, Thomas Sheridan, and at the same time began work on her first novel, Eugenia and Adelaide. Her most successful novel, Memoirs of Miss Sidney Bidulph (1761), in diary format, was clearly influenced by Richardson's Pamela. She then turned to drama, her work being performed at Drury Lane by David Garrick's company. Amongst her other works are The Discovery (1763), The Dupe (1764), A Trip to Bath (1765) and History of Nourjahad (1767).
