| Your tastes, you say, are fixed; if they are so, you must be doubly careful to ensure their gratification. If you cannot make them subservient to external circumstances, you should certainly, if it be in your power, choose a situation in which circumstances will be subservient to them. If you are convinced that you could not adopt the tastes of another, it will be absolutely necessary for your happiness to live with one whose tastes are similar to your own. |

| First published in 1795, “Letters for Literary Ladies” was Irish novelist Maria Edgeworth’s maiden attempt into the literary foray. It left an indelible mark on the readers as is proven by its enduring popularity. Written in defence of female education, it propounds views which are relevant even today. This epistolary masterpiece also explores the relationships between women and men during the 18th century. A timeless classic! |
