The Triumph of Prudence over Passion by Elizabeth Sheridan: Or, The History of Miss Mortimer and Miss Fitzgerald (Early Irish Fiction, c.1680-1820)


Originally published in 1781, The Triumph of Prudence over Passion; or, The History of Miss Mortimer and Miss Fitzgerald is an unconventional epistolary novel set in Ireland and France in 1779 and 1780, against the background of the patriot political agitation that marked the age of Grattan's parliament. The young women who write the bulk of the novel's letters link the state of Ireland and the condition of its women, powerfully endorsing liberty for both. Their witty and incisive commentary - on political events, male and female relations, education, and national differences -
