Sarah Scott (née Robinson; 1720 1795) was an English novelist, translator, social reformer, and member of the Bluestockings. Her most famous work was her utopian novel A Description of Millenium Hall and the Country Adjacent, followed closely by the sequel The History of Sir George Ellison. Millennium Hall is a 1762 novel by Sarah Scott. It was Scott s most significant novel, popular enough to go into four editions very early into its publication. Interest has revived in the 21st century among feminist literary scholars. Elizabeth Montague, Sarah Scott s sisters, had become a leader of the bluestockings, a coterie of reform-minded individuals. Hall is a fictional embodiment of bluestockings ideals. It was often considered to be Oliver Goldsmith who wrote it, but that was untrue. Scarce in any edition!
