Synopsis

Two Centuries of Testimony in Favour of Mrs. Aphra Behn is a collection of essays and commentary championing the literary contributions of Aphra Behn, a prominent 17th-century English playwright, poet, and novelist. This volume gathers diverse perspectives from across two centuries, celebrating Behn's pioneering role as one of the first English women to earn her living by writing.

The essays delve into Behn's dramatic works, poetry, and prose, assessing her literary merit and historical significance. By presenting a chorus of voices in support of Behn, the collection aims to solidify her place in the literary canon and challenge prevailing criticisms. This book offers valuable insights into the reception and legacy of a groundbreaking female author, making it essential reading for scholars and enthusiasts of Restoration literature and women's literary history.
