Dedicated to Warren Hastings late Governor General of Bengal Hamilton's first novel appeared in 1796 to considerable acclaim. It satirises society through the device of Oriental letters on the model of works by Montesquieu and Goldsmith its theme being that women also can be both strong and able. The Preface based partly on her brother's experiences in India is both extensive and erudite. Elizabeth Hamilton 1758-1816 Irish novelist essayist and poet. Born in Belfast she moved as a child to Stirling later to London and finally to Edinburgh in 1804. She directed all her works to her own sex whose qualities of mind she admired and promoted.
