Women of Letters, Manuscript Circulation and Print Afterlives in the Eighteenth Century: Elizabeth Rowe, Catharine Cockburn and Elizabeth Carter

'This gracefully written book is an original and thought-provoking contribution to our understanding of three of the most intelligent of the British Enlightenment women. Bigold's careful treatment of their writings, published and manuscript, and especially her deeply knowledgeable presentation of their engagement with the most important philosophical and literary debates of their times is a major contribution.' - Paula R. Backscheider, Philpott-Stevens Eminent Scholar, Auburn University, USA
