2. Biography Of Frances Burney Frances Burney d Arblay. In her long life that spanned women to write. But Frances Burney s urge to write could not be stifled. At age 16 http://dc37.dawsoncollege.qc.ca/burney/biofb.html

Frances Burney d'Arblay In her long life that spanned five reigns, Frances Burney d'Arblay (1752-1840) created a new genre in the English novel, chronicled events ranging from George III's mad crisis to the aftermath of Waterloo, and wrote comedies that could have rivalled Sheridan's had they been produced. She was born June 13, 1752, in King's Lynn, Norfolk, the daughter of Esther Sleepe Burney and music historian Dr. Charles Burney. From the time she learned her alphabet, she was a writer, composing odes, plays, songs, farces, and poems at an early age. She burned them all at age 15, most likely under the influence of her stepmother, who didn't think it appropriate for women to write. But Frances Burney's urge to write could not be stifled. At age 16, she began the diary that would chronicle personal and public events from the early reign of George III to the dawn of the Victoria age. These included first-hand accounts of the Johnson-Boswell circle, the trial of Warren Hastings, George III's mad crisis, Napoleonic France, a mastectomy without anaesthesia, and the aftermath of the battle of Waterloo, which found her nursing the stream of English wounded evacuated from the battlefield. She knew luminaries such as David Garrick, Sir Joshua Reynolds, James Boswell, and Samuel Johnson through her father, and her early diaries chronicle evenings spent in this circle at home.

She was also a prolific writer of journals and letters, beginning with the diary she started at fifteen and continuing for seventy years until the end of her eventful life. From her youth in London society to a period in the court of Queen Charlotte and her years interned in France with her husband during the Napoleonic Wars, she captured the changing times around her, creating brilliantly comic and candid portraits of those she encountered - including the 'mad' King George, Samuel Johnson and a charismatic Napoleon Bonaparte. She also describes, in her most moving piece, undergoing a mastectomy at fifty-nine without anaesthetic. Whether a carefree young girl or a mature woman, Fanny Burney's forthright, intimate and wickedly perceptive voice brings her world powerfully to life. External Reviews [link] [amazon.com]

Like Evelina , they take as their theme the entry into the world of a young girl of beauty and understanding but no experience, and expose her to circumstances and events that develop her character. Her novels were admired by Jane Austen. She also wrote The Wanderer , published in 1814, but it was not a success. In 1832 she edited the Memoirs of her father. She was also a prodigious writer of lively letters and journals; her includes sketches of Johnson, Garrick and many others, and her later gives a vivid account of her life at court.

Frances (Fanny) Burney Fanny Burney's upbringing resembled that of a heroine of an 18th-century novel. The daughter of musicologist William Burney, she was born into an artistic and well-connected family. Her formal schooling was minimal she didn't learn to read or write until at least age 10 but her education in decorum and conduct began at an earlier age, typical of middle-class girls in England in the mid-1700s. Conduct books for girls were tremendously popular in this period and considered a necessary part of the middle-class girl's education. The novel also aimed squarely at an increasingly female readership flourished as a genre at the same time, and a number of the earliest novels can be read as attempts at teaching the rules of conduct to English readers. Samuel Richardson's Pamela (1740) and Clarissa (1747-1748) are the most influential examples of this convergence. Burney learned early that humility, not displays of vanity, flattered a young lady, and she in fact destroyed her first attempt at written "exhibition," the 1767 manuscript The History of Caroline Evelyn.

home search introduction help ... Coming Soon... Frances Burney Born Frances Burney on June 13, 1752, in Kings Lynn, England, Fanny Burney astonished London society with novels, plays, and a multivolume diary that boasted a witty voice and a wide breadth of experiences including being a court member to Queen Charlotte and the wife of a French general during Napoleon's reign. No one would have expected it of her, a shy child with little education. However, Burney's father, Charles, was a successful musician who introduced his children to a number of artists and intellectuals, including Dr. Samuel Johnson. Under their tutelage, Burney became an avid reader, and although her father was opposed to the idea, she began to write prose. By age fifteen, Burney had penned a novel, The History of Caroline Evelyn, which she later burned, and started a diary that she would continue to write in for seventy-two years. The early manuscript that Burney destroyed and the accumulation of her journal entries and letters laid the foundation for Evelina; or, the History of a Young Lady's Entrance into the World
