Reading Charlotte Temple and Lucy Temple | Alexandria
Read Charlotte Temple and Lucy Temple by Susanna Rowson. Exposing female seduction 🔥 as a cautionary trap, Rowson's novels daringly subvert the era's moral panic, revealing how economic systems - not women's sexuality - drive social ruin. Her radical stance? Capitalist demands, not feminine desire, destroy virtue. A startlingly modern lens linking gender, markets and morality.
