Their experiences, difficulties, and choices address the philosophical question, Are moral theories adequate guides to good conduct?" "In her introduction to this late-eighteenth-century novel by Charriere, Emma Rooksby discusses the sentimental tradition, Enlightenment ideas, epistolary fiction, Charriere's career, and the difficult situation of women and women writers in postrevolulionary France."--BOOK JACKET.
