There is an amusing and (in its context) just passage of Thackeray's, in which he calls Charlotte Lennox, author of The Female Quixote (xxxx), a "figment." But it would be unlucky if any one were thereby prevented from reading this work of the lady whom Johnson admired, and for whom he made an all?night orgie of apple?pie and bay?leaves. Her book, which from its heroine is also called Arabella, is clever and not unamusing, though it errs (in accordance with the moral?critical principles of the time) by not merely satirising the "heroic" romances of the Gomberville?La Calprenede?Scudery type, but solemnly discussing them. Arabella, the romance?bitten daughter of a marquis, is, for all her delusion, or because of it, rather a charming creature. Her lover Glanville, his Richardsonian sister, and the inevitable bad Baronet (he can hardly be called wicked, especially for a Baronet) are more commonplace: and the thing would have been better as a rather long nouvelle than as a far from short novel. It alternately comes quite close to its original (as in the intended burning of Arabella's books)
and goes entirely away from it, and neither as an imitation nor independently is it as good as Graves's Spiritual Quixote: but it is very far from contemptible. Yet though the aptitude of women for novel?writing was thus early exemplified, it is not to be supposed that the majority of persons who felt the new influences were of that sex. By far the larger number of those who crowded to follow the Four were, like them, men. That not exactly credit to the Tory party, Dr. John Shebbeare, has had his demerits in other ways excused to some extent on the score of Lydia--whose surname, by the way, was "Fairchild," not unknown in later days of fiction. Even one who, if critical conscience would in any way permit it, would fain let the Tory dogs have a little the best of it, must, I fear, pronounce Lydia a very poor thing. Shebbeare, who was a journalist, had the journalist faculty of "letting everything go in"--of taking as much as he could from Richardson, Fielding, Smollett, etc., up to date (xxxx); and of throwing back to Afra for an interesting Indian, Canassatego. The book (like not a few
