Synopsis
With her satire on Anglo-Irish landlords in Castle Rackrent (1800), Maria Edgeworth pioneered the regional novel and inspired Sir Walter Scott's Waverley (1814). Politically risky, stylistically innovative, and wonderfully entertaining, the novel changes the focus of conflict in Ireland from
religion to class, and boldly predicts the rise of the Irish Catholic bourgeoisie. The second edition now includes new notes informed by the latest scholarship.

Condition: Aceptable. : Castle Rackrent es una novela de Maria Edgeworth, publicada en 1800. Esta sátira sobre los terratenientes angloirlandeses es narrada por Thady Quirk, un sirviente que relata la decadencia de la familia Rackrent a través de cuatro generaciones. La novela es una crítica a la clase dominante y una exploración de las relaciones de poder en la sociedad irlandesa de la época. Edgeworth utiliza un lenguaje coloquial y un narrador poco fiable para ofrecer una visión irónica y perspicaz de la vida en Irlanda.
