Discover Mary Shelley's Lost Masterpiece: Valperga
Valperga: A hidden gem from Romanticism's premier woman storyteller, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley.
About the Book
The novel, first published in 1823, is a major discovery of the Mary Shelley bicentenary of 1997. Its unconventional approach to historical fiction and feminist perspective make it a unique and delightful read for the twentieth-century reader.
Shelley's Mastery
Mary Shelley's second novel, Valperga: Or, The Life and Adventures of Castruccio, Prince of Lucca, showcases her remarkable mastery of intricate details of thirteenth-century Tuscan politics. Her resolute filtering of the bloody heroics of the age through the sensibilities of two women who are destroyed by them reveals a feminist perspective that is notably absent in her first novel, Frankenstein.
Unconventional and Unique
The lack of success of Valperga: Or, The Life and Adventures of Castruccio, Prince of Lucca as a follow-up to Frankenstein was likely due to its unconventional approach and subject matter. However, these attributes make it an exciting discovery for the modern reader.
A Glittering Addition
The latest addition to the acclaimed Women Writers in English series, this glittering novel belongs on the shelves of all serious readers of English fiction.
About the Author
Author: Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, with introductions and notes by Stuart Curran and Elizabeth H. Hageman.
A Tale of Two Women
The novel follows the lives of two women, Euthanasia and Beatrice, who are deeply affected by the political intrigue and power struggles in thirteenth-century Italy. Through their experiences, Shelley offers a unique perspective on this tumultuous period.
