Eighteenth-century England witnessed a convergence of three phenomena that link together genre, class, and gender: the conceptualization of 'autobiography' as a recognizable set of practices, distinct from other kinds of writing; the use of autobiography as a technology of the middle-class self; and the assertion of a female identity in public print. It is the intersection of these practices in the autobiographical subject that is the focus of this book.
