Summary | "The Power of Sympathy: or, The Triumph of Nature. Founded in Truth." by Mrs. Perez Morton (Sarah Wentworth Apthorp) is a novel written in the late 18th century. This work examines the social issues of its time, particularly focusing on the themes of seduction, virtue, and female education. It sets out to inspire young women with a sense of self-worth while exposing the dire consequences of moral failings, often through the experiences of its characters. The opening of the novel introduces a correspondence between Harrington and his friend Worthy, revealing Harrington's infatuation with a woman named Harriot. Their letters reflect the conflicting emotions related to love, societal expectations, and personal honor. Harrington expresses his affectionate feelings while pondering the nature of love, while Worthy questions the sincerity and depth of Harrington's attachment. Through their exchanges, the groundwork is laid for a deeper exploration of romantic and moral dilemmas, foreshadowing the challenges that both characters and those around them will face as the story unfolds.
