Charlotte Temple
Sinopsis
Charlotte Temple, by Mrs. Rowson, was first published in England in 1791. The novel follows Charlotte, a fifteen-year-old schoolgirl whose life is upended when a British officer seduces her and persuades her to leave with him for America. After making the journey, Charlotte is left behind while pregnant and without money, and she must confront the serious consequences of what has happened. Written as a cautionary tale in the seduction novel tradition, the story struck a chord with early American readers and became especially popular in the United States, where it went through more than 200 editions.
