基本説明
Thomas Cadell first published "Julia" in London in 1790. It was Helen Maria Williams's first and only novel and has been interpreted as a reworking of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's "Julie, ou la Nouvelle Héloïse" (1761). Williams's character Julia also shares strong parallels with later poetry-loving heroines such as Adeline in Ann Radcliffe's "Romance of the Forest" (1791) and Marianne in Jane Austen's "Sense and Sensibility" (1811). Mary Wollstonecraft admired "Julia", and the influence of its proto-feminist themes is evident in her "Maria, or the Wrongs of Woman" (1798), written after Wollstonecraft met Williams in Paris.
