Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed exploration of the lives and works of several successful candidates who received prizes in writing competitions held by the Royal Society of Arts between 1759 and 1791. These writers produced a range of literary works, including poetry, drama, and essays. One author included here is William Hayley, whose 1781 play, "Marcella," examines the oppression of women. Anna Seward, who was awarded for her poetry in 1782, and Hannah Cowley, the playwright, who was awarded in 1776, are among the other included figures, who helped popularize Gothicism and sentimentalism in their works. The author examines how themes of nature, social class, gender, and other social issues are explored within the works of these writers, and how their writings continue to be relevant to our own contemporary lives. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
