A Simple Story is a novel by English author and actress, Elizabeth Inchbald. Published in early 1791 as an early example of a "novel of passion", it was very successful and became widely read in England and abroad. It went into a second edition in March 1791. It is still in print today. The novel is divided into four books, two each devoted to its two storylines. The first two books follow the love story of young Miss Milner (we are never told her first name) and her guardian Dorriforth, a Roman Catholic priest, who later renounces his holy orders on inheriting an aristocratic title and marries Miss Milner. The last two books, set some seventeen or eighteen years later, follow the troubled relationship of Dorriforth (now Lord Elmwood) and his daughter Matilda, whom he has excluded from his life following his wife's adulterous affair and death. The book touches on issues including the education of women, Catholicism, sensibility, and gender roles................... Elizabeth Inchbald (née Simpson) (1753-1821) was an English novelist, actress, and dramatist.Her two novels are still read today. Written work: Due to success as a playwright, Inchbald did not need the financial support of a husband and did not remarry. Between 1784 and 1805 she had 19 of her comedies, sentimental dramas, and farces (many of them translations from the French) performed at London theatres. Her first play to be performed was A Mogul Tale, in which she played the leading feminine role of Selina. In 1780, she joined the Covent Garden Company and played a breeches role in Philaster as Bellarion. Inchbald had a few of her plays produced such as Appearance is Against Them (1785), Such Things Are (1787), and Everyone Has Fault (1793). Some of her other plays such as A Mogul Tale (1784) and I'll Tell You What (1785) were produced at the Haymarket Theatre. Eighteen of her plays were published, though she wrote several more; the exact number is in dispute though most recent commentators claim between 21 and 23. Her two novels have been frequently reprinted. She also did considerable editorial and critical work. Her literary start began with writing for The Artist and Edinburgh Review.[6] A four-volume autobiography was destroyed before her death upon the advice of her confessor, but she left some of her diaries. The latter are currently held at the Folger Shakespeare Library and an edition was recently published. Her play Lovers' Vows (1798) was featured as a focus of moral controversy by Jane Austen in her novel Mansfield Park. After her success, she felt she needed to give something back to London society, and decided in 1805 to try being a theatre critic. A political radical and friend of William Godwin and Thomas Holcroft, her political beliefs can more easily be found in her novels than in her plays, due to the constrictive environment of the patent theatres of Georgian London.[8] "Inchbald's life was marked by tensions between, on the one hand, political radicalism, a passionate nature evidently attracted to a number of her admirers, and a love of independence, and on the other hand, a desire for social respectability and a strong sense of the emotional attraction of authority figures."[4] She died on 1 August 1821 in Kensington and is buried in the churchyard of St Mary Abbots.[9] On her gravestone it states, "Whose writings will be cherished while truth, simplicity, and feelings, command public admiration." In 1833, a two-volume Memoirs of Mrs. Inchbald by James Boaden was published by Richard Bentley. In recent decades Inchbald has been the subject of increasing critical interest, particularly among scholars investigating women's writing.

Yet there was a sentence in the letter, that, worse than all the tenderness left out, wounded her sensibility; and she could not read the line, GRATITUDE FOR ALL THE FAVOURS CONFERRED ON ME, without turning pale with horror, then kindling with indignation at the commonplace thanks, which insultingly reminded her of her innocence given in exchange for unmeaning acknowledgments.

Lover's Vows is a play written by Elizabeth Inchbald, a British novelist, actress, and playwright, in 1798. The story revolves around the character of Agatha, a young woman who falls in love with a man of lower social status. Despite her father's disapproval, Agatha marries the man and starts a new life. However, their happiness is short-lived as they face numerous challenges that threaten to tear them apart. The play explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations. It challenges the traditional notions of marriage and social hierarchy prevalent in the 18th century. Inchbald's writing is known for its strong female characters and her ability to address social issues through her works. Lover's Vows was controversial at the time of its publication due to its portrayal of a woman marrying beneath her social class. However, it was also popular among audiences for its romantic and dramatic elements. The play has since been adapted and performed numerous times, and its themes continue to resonate with modern audiences.ANHALT.
