The sentimental novels of the early national period were considered a danger to society and were criticized for the corrupting influence they had on the minds of their mostly young and female audience. They told tales of vice and intrigue that purported to be "based on fact" and also advocated the need for better female education that would prepare young women against sweet-talking seducers. Extremely popular in America after the Revolution and throughout the nineteenth century, Charlotte Temple and The Coquette were two of the most successful novels of the period. Reprinted here in their entirety, with Introductions by the literary scholar Cathy N. Davidson, they offer the modern student a glimpse at the earliest American popular fiction. Charlotte Temple, the most popular novel in America until Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin, went through over 200 editions. It tells of a beautiful English girl who at the age of 15 is courted by and runs away with a British lieutenant named Montraville. Susanna Rowson, the daughter of a British naval officer, was one of the most accomplished women of the early national period. Actress, song-writer, novelist, poet, dramatist, and essayist, she was also the founder of one of the most progressive academies for young women of her day. She remained best-known, however, for Charlotte Temple, a novel that promised to be "of service to [the]...young and unprotected woman in her first entrance into life." In her Introduction, Cathy Davidson discusses the enormous popularity of the book and the life of Susanna Rowson, which was even more sensational than those of the characters depicted in the novel.

Charlotte Temple is the story of the titular young woman who becomes entangled in a love affair with a lieutenant in the British army. Encouraged by her wayward teacher, Mademoiselle La Rue, Charlotte leaves behind her boarding school and absconds to America along with her seducer, lieutenant Montraville, and his friend Belcour. Far from her home in England, Charlotte’s notions of purity, romance, and familial devotion are quickly brought into stark conflict as she experiences the pain of misplaced trust and betrayal on the unfamiliar shores of New York. The novel, first published in 1791, quickly became a bestseller, and remained the best-selling novel in American literature until it was unseated in 1851 by Uncle Tom’s Cabin.

Helen Craik’s Adelaide de Narbonne, with Memoirs of Charlotte de Cordet was published anonymously at the Minerva Press in 1800, the third of five novels that Craik wrote between 1796 and 1805. Deeply rooted in the contemporary historical milieu of her time, Craik’s novel features the sanguinary events of post-revolutionary France, including the war in the Vendée as well as “The Terror”. Described by critics as a “unique hybrid of historical Gothic,” the novel is indeed permeated by Gothic elements that draw their material directly from the more celebrated novels by Ann Radcliffe and Horace Walpole. Borrowing from customary and well-oiled Gothic visual elements, from the landscapes surrounding the castle and the rock of Narbonne, to old monasteries and half-ruined edifices, Craik builds the fascinating story of the Countess Adelaide de Narbonne, whose character partly represents the author’s own rebellion against parental authority and despotism. Fashioning Adelaide de Narbonne as the traditional Gothic heroine characterized by refined sensibility and virtue in distress, who staunchly rejects the oppression of male authorities, Craik connects the story of the Countess with that of Charlotte de Cordet (Charlotte Corday), Jean-Paul Marat’s murderer, undoubtedly more than a mere “appendix” to Adelaide’s story, as the title of the novel suggests. Here reprinted and annotated for the first time, Helen Craik’s Adelaide de Narbonne, with Memoirs of Charlotte de Cordet joins the voices of numerous late eighteenth-century British women writers who openly defied the patriarchal system of values of the time, symbolically represented in the characters of Marat, Robespierre, and the whole system of the Terror in post-revolutionary France, to promote a challenge and a subversion of the traditional stereotypes of the delicate, passive woman of the age of sensibility.
