Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History of Sir Charles Grandison, Vol. 1 of 7: In a Series of Letters, a New With the Last Corrections by the Author The Editor of the following Letters takes leave to observe, that he has now, in this publication, completed the plan, that was the object of his wishes, rather than of his hopes, to accomplish. The first collection which he published, intituled Pamela, exhibited the beauty and superiority of virtue in an innocent and unpolished mind, with the reward which often, even in this life, a protecting Providence bestows on goodness. A young woman of low degree, relating to her honest parents the severe trials she met with from a master who ought to have been the protector, not the assailer of her honour, shews the character of a libertine in its truly contemptible light. This libertine, how ever, from the foundation of good principles laid in his early years by an excellent mother; by his passion for a virtuous young woman; and by her amiable example, and unwearied patience, when she became his wife; is, after a length of time, perfectly reclaimed. The second collection, published under the title of Clarissa, displayed a more melancholy scene. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
