"The American Quarterly Review, No. 17, March 1831" by Various is a periodical publication written in the early 19th century. This volume features a collection of critical essays and reviews addressing literary and social topics of the time. The opening article critiques Lady Morgan's work "France in 1829-30," exploring themes of vanity, self-importance, and the cultural exchange between Ireland and France. This issue likely appeals to readers interested in literature, cultural critique, and the social dynamics of the early 19th century. The opening of this edition sets the stage for a satirical examination of Lady Morgan's journey to France, where preparations are in full swing in Dublin for her imminent departure. We meet a characteristically self-absorbed Lady Morgan, portrayed as a romantic figure packed with books and personal artifacts, and her husband Sir Charles, who expresses his reluctance about the trip. The narrative paints a humorous picture of her expectations and the reality of encountering the perceived Anglomania in France, as she grapples with her romanticized notions against the backdrop of societal changes and personal insecurities. Overall, the opening highlights Lady Morgan's self-centeredness and foreshadows the eventual disappointment of her literary pursuits during her Parisian stay.
