― Maria Edgeworth
👓 About the quote:
Maria Edgeworth, born January 1, 1767, was a prolific and influential Anglo-Irish writer of adult and children’s books often considered the ‘Irish Jane Austen’ or ‘female Sir Walter Scott’. Her admirers, in fact, included both Austen and Scott, who acknowledged her influence in Waverly, as well as Ivan Turgenev and William Makepeace Thackeray. Edgeworth was an outspoken commentator on class, race, and gender whose novels reflected her beliefs in women’s education reform as well as her criticism of the treatment of Irish peasantry, who she worked hard to help.
