Episode 8: Jane and Anna Maria Porter / Devoney Looser

  • サマリー

  • We talk to Devoney Looser about Jane and Anna Maria Porter, two phenomenally successful sister novelists who were better known than their contemporary, Jane Austen, in their day. Between them, the Porter sisters wrote more more than two dozen books. Many of them were early instances of the historical novel, in settings ranging from fourteenth century Scotland to seventeenth century Norway. When Jane Porter combined romance with real history, it was a novelty. And yet, a male writer and friend of the Porter family, Sir Walter Scott, typically gets the credit developing the historical novel today.
