Summary: "The Intimate Letters of Hester Piozzi and Penelope Pennington, 1788-1821" by Piozzi et al. is a collection of historical letters written during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This work provides insight into the lives, thoughts, and social interactions of two prominent women, highlighting the cultural and intellectual milieu of their time. The letters offer a personal glimpse into Hester Piozzi, a notable literary figure and close associate of Samuel Johnson, and her friend Penelope Pennington, showcasing their correspondence and the emotional depth of their relationships. The opening of this collection sets the stage for understanding Mrs. Piozzi's life prior to the correspondence, detailing her background, marriages, and social circle, including her connections with prominent literary figures. It highlights the context of their letters, which begin shortly after Piozzi's second marriage and continue until just before her death. The preface emphasizes the significance of these letters as a candid reflection of Piozzi's witty and charming character, capturing her experiences of society, her travels, and her thoughts on friendships and family. As the reader delves into these letters, they can expect a rich blend of personal anecdotes, societal commentary, and the evolving dynamics of women's roles in their intellectual circles.
