Castle Rackrent
by Maria Edgeworth
ISBN: 9780199537556
Published: 2008-10-09
With her satire on Anglo-Irish landlords in Castle Rackrent (1800), Maria Edgeworth pioneered the regional novel and inspired Sir Walter Scott's Waverley (1814). Politically risky, stylistically innovative, and wonderfully entertaining, the novel changes the focus of conflict in Ireland from religion to class, and boldly predicts the rise of the Irish Catholic bourgeoisie. This new edition offers updated notes as well as a new introduction.
