During the 1790s, with Ireland in political crisis, Maria Edgeworth made a surprisingly rebellious choice: in Castle Rackrent , her first novel, she adopted an Irish Catholic voice to narrate the decline of a family from her own Anglo-Irish class. Castle Rackrent 's narrator, Thady Quirk, gives us four generations of Rackrent heirs - Sir Patrick, the dissipated spendthrift; Sir Murtagh, the litigating fiend; Sir Kit, the brutal husband and gambling absentee; and Sir Condy, the lovable and improvident dupe of Thady's own son, Jason. With this satire on Anglo-Irish landlords Edgeworth pioneered the regional novel and inspired Sir Walter Scott's Waverly (1814). She also changed the focus of conflict in Ireland from religion to class and boldly predicted the rise of the Irish Catholic Bourgeoisie. This book is intended for students of women's writing of the nineteenth century.

Condición: 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.
