1 WOMEN AND SHAKESPEARE IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY analyses the significant role played by women in the construction of Shakespeare s reputation that took place in the eighteenth century. The period s perception of Shakespeare as unlearned allowed many women to identify with him and in doing so they seized an opportunity to enter public life by writing about and performing his works. Actresses (such as Hannah Pritchard, Kitty Clive, Susannah Cibber, Dorothy Jordan and Sarah Siddons), female playgoers (including the Shakespeare Ladies Club) and women critics (like Charlotte Lennox, Elizabeth Montagu, Elizabeth Griffith and Elizabeth Inchbald) had a profound effect on Shakespeare s reception. Interdisciplinary in approach and employing a broad range of sources, this book s analysis of criticism, performance and audience response shows that in constructing Shakespeare s significance for themselves and for society, women were instrumental in the establishment of Shakespeare at the forefront of English literature, theatre, culture and society in the eighteenth century and beyond. fiona ritchie is an Assistant Professor of Drama and Theatre in the Department of English at McGill University. She is co-editor, with Peter Sabor, of Shakespeare in the Eighteenth Century (Cambridge University Press, 2012).

9 Acknowledgements I owe a great debt to Ann Thompson and Elizabeth Eger, whose pioneering work in the field of women and Shakespeare in the eighteenth century has inspired me and who supervised the doctoral dissertation from which some of the material in this book is drawn; they have generously continued to encourage my research in the years since graduation. I would also like to thank others who were influential during my time at King s College London (and have remained so since): Anne Gill, Nicky Leach, Sonia Massai, Gordon McMullan, Lucy Munro and Lucie Sutherland. I have benefited from a similarly supportive research environment at McGill and am especially grateful to Erin Hurley, Peter Sabor and Paul Yachnin for their engagement with and encouragement of this project. Jen Drouin, Allan Hepburn, Tom Mole, Monica Popescu and Alanna Thain have also offered advice and moral support for which I am very thankful. Students at McGill have continued to provide new insights into my subject that have shaped the development of this book, and I have benefited enormously from the work of several research assistants: special thanks are due to Tom Fish and Will Robinson. Alan Andrews read several portions of this manuscript and made invaluable suggestions. I am delighted to be part of thriving communities of research into Shakespeare, eighteenth-century studies and theatre history. Many scholars have generously shared with me their expertise in these fields. Thanks are due to Michael Dobson, Jack Lynch, Felicity Nussbaum, Kathryn Prince, Kate Rumbold, Richard Schoch and Diana Solomon. I would also like to record my gratitude to several scholars who have been influential in conceptualising this project but who sadly were not able to see its completion: Robin Dix, Inga-Stina Ewbank, Jane Moody and Sasha Roberts. My time working at Dr Johnson s House enabled me to benefit from the advice and friendship of Natasha McEnroe, Kate Chisholm, Michael Bundock and many others. For financial support I am indebted to the Arts and Humanities Research Council, the Fonds Québécois de recherche sur la société et la culture, ix

I am extremely thankful to friends and family who have supported me during the completion of this project, including Steve Day, Louise King and Sam Marsden. My mother, Sue, and brother, Michael, have provided unwavering support. This book is dedicated to two Andrews. To my father, Andrew Ritchie, who did not live to see its completion but who would, I hope, have been proud of the result. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to convince the historian in him that the eighteenth century was interesting after all. And to my husband, Andrew Stoten, partner and proofreader extraordinaire. His diligent eye has saved the manuscript from many errors and his love and support have saved me from many personal ones.
