Where it came from
Samuel Richardson published The History of Clarissa Harlowe between 1747 and 1748. Written in an epistolary format, the novel reflects the eighteenth-century preoccupation with moral conduct and the burgeoning influence of the middle-class literary sphere. Richardson designed the narrative to serve as a pedagogical tool, intended to instruct readers on virtue while exploring the tragic consequences of social and familial pressure on the individual.
The work was an immediate sensation in London's literary circles, garnering both intense admiration for its psychological depth and criticism for its relentless length and tragic trajectory. While Richardson was primarily a printer by trade, his decision to utilize a series of letters allowed him to experiment with the interiority of his characters in ways that were revolutionary for the time. This specific volume represents a lasting legacy of his influence on the development of the English novel.
