17783 Scott Less Important Novels of MrsTranslated by Isabel Hill; with metrical versions of the odes by L. E. Landon. Originally published in 1807, this novel is considered one of the early examples of Romantic writing. Corinne is too independent and complicated for her erstwhile lover. A Scottish peer, he is torn between respect for his dead father's wishes that he marry traditionally English Lucille and his love for the Italian poet Corinne. Plot twists add poignancy to their troubles.
