'Stumbling on Quotation': who does Eliza Haywood quote and why?

Eliza Heywood (1693-1756) was one of Britain's leading writers in the first half of the 18th century


Eliza Haywood was famous for her drama, her translations, her novels, her political writings and her journalism: The Female Spectator, the newsletter of Chawton House Library, is named in her honour. The lecturer will use Haywood's prose work 'Reflections on the Vaious Effects of Love' (1726) to identify her favourite sources, and the poets and writers she quotes - and misquotes.
