The Early American Women Writers series offers rare works of fiction by eighteenth- and nineteenth-century women, each reprinted in its entirety, each introduced by Cathy N. Davidson, who places the novel in an historical and literary perspective. Ranging from serious cautionary tales about moral corruption to amusing and trenchant social satire, these books provide today's reader with a unique window into the earliest American popular fiction and way of life. First published in 1801, Female Quixotism is a boisterous, rollicking anti-romance and literary satire. It takes place in the fictional village of L---, Pennsylvania, where its central character Dorcas Sheldon--who styles herself the romantic "Dorcasina"--sets out on a quixotic quest for the kind of romantic love portrayed in her favorite English novels. Having rejected the prosaic yet honorable advances of her first suitor, "Lysander," Dorcasina narrowly escapes marriage to a series of unscrupulous rogues interested mostly in her considerable fortune. Moving from one misadventure to another, the heroine's journey ends in a lonely old age bereft of romantic illusion. Female Quixotism was written during a period of self-definition for the fledgling American republic, and offers a telling glimpse of gender, race, and class issues--as volatile then as they are today. Its woman's-eye view of the life and literature of the age provides a tragicomic parody of the limited choices available to women in a society dedicated to the principle that all men are created equal.

Excerpt: ...fearing the lady should overhear their conversation, -aid in a low voice, ' Hush, for Heaven's sake! be sj. lent, and let her have an apartment for this night only; tomorrow she goes with me to Philadelphia; when I am master of her estate and person, and come to reside among you, you may depend npon my favour, and that J shall be one of your firmest friends." The landlord perplexed and irritated at a reply which he could not understand, answered in a voice not at all softened; " Estate! yes, a fine estate you'll have with a w I'll warrant. But yon may seek another lodging: she shall go packing directly. I'm not going to have the credit of my house ruined, which for twenty years has been perfectly good, by no stich madams, I'll assure you, sir." O'Connor, perplexed and confounded, in his turn, at what he had just heard, answered: " What is it you say? Pray explain yourself. What mean you by calling Miss hel-don such opprobrious names? "Ha! ha! ha! Very good, excellent, by jingo; and so she has been and palmed herself on you for Miss Sheldon. But she's an impudent baggage, and no more Miss Sheldon than our Moll is.: ' ' Who then, for Heaven's sake, is she? interrogated the astonished Irishman. The landlord then gave him to understand, that she was one of those unhappy females, who are lost to all sense of modesty and virtue; too many of whom are to be found in all our large towns: that, about a month before, she had come into the village with a young gentleman from Philadelphia, where she had passed for sometime, for his wife; that, about a week before, they had a violent quarrel, and parted; that In his anger he exposed her character, left her, and returned to Philadelphia; since which time, she had been Strolling about in quest of prey, and...
