    Extractions: Boston College In Castle Rackrent , Maria Edgeworth uses the Gothic convention of imprisonment to emphasize women's marginalized place in the patriarchal society of the end of the eighteenth century. Both Sir Kit Rackrent's wife (significantly, the reader never learns her first name) and Miss Isabella Moneygawl are locked in their rooms against their will because each refuses to accept a specific command from her husband or father, respectively. Although not physically imprisoned in a room, Sir Murtagh Rackrent's wife (another woman without a first name) is nonetheless imprisoned in her marriage because she cannot regain control of the assets she owned prior to her marriage to Sir Murtagh unless she outlives him. Her tyranny over the servants and tenants of Castle Rackrent reproduces the power relationship between husband and wife. Mary Wollstonecraft describes marriage as "slavery" for girls in A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (155). The title character of Wollstonecraft's

    Extractions: U NIVERSITY OF D ELAWARE L IBRARY In western Europe, there was no separate category of books for children before the eighteenth century. The Bible , stories of saints and martyrs, and bestiaries or books about exotic animals, were probably the first printed books available to children. The woodcut illustrations of these early works would be intriguing even for those unable to read the text. Early books for children were strongly influenced by the conservative English beliefs of the seventeenth century. Seeing children as amoral savages needing to be taught right from wrong, society used stories filled with death and damnation to frighten children into good behavior. Humor and imagination were banned, replaced by stories of boys and girls who suffered grisly fates for misbehaving. Johann Amos Comenius, 1592-1670. Orbis Sensualium Pictus translated as "The Visible World" or "The World Around Us in Pictures" was the first European schoolbook based on the idea of visual education. Each page consists of a picture of some subject or object and, underneath, a bilingual Latin-English text which in simple terms explains the image. Originally published in German and Latin in Nuremberg in 1654, the book was available to both adults and children. Used as a picture book by young children and a Latin textbook by older students, Orbis Sensualium Pictus was reprinted until well into the nineteenth century.

    Extractions: Maria Edgeworth [1767 - 1849] Maria Edgeworth was born in Oxfordshire, at the home of her grandparents, but spent most of her life in Ireland on her father's estate. Her early efforts at fiction were melodramatic, one of her schoolgirl novels featuring a villian who wore a mask made from the skin of a dead man's face. She grew up in the landed gentry of Ireland, with the families of Kitty Pakenham (later Wellington's wife), Lady Moira, and her aunt Margaret Ruston at Black Castle for company. She acted as manager of her father's estate, later drawing on this experience for her novels about the Irish. In 1802 the Edgeworths went abroad, first to Brussels and then to France (during the Peace of Amiens, that brief lull in the Napoleanic wars). They met all the notables, and Maria recieved a marriage proposal from a Swedish count. They returned to Ireland and Maria returned to writing. After her father's death in 1817 she edited his memoirs, and extended them with her biographical comments. She was an active writer to the last, and worked strenously for the relief of the famine-stricken Irish peasants during 1845. Mr. Edgeworth, a well-know author and inventor, encouraged his daughter's career, and has been criticized for his insistence on approving and editing her work. The tales in
