Product Information
The Court Journals and Letters of Frances Burney, 1790-91 , is the sixth and final volume of Frances Burney's court journals and letters published by Oxford University Press. The journals and letters in this volume record Frances Burney's final eighteen months as Keeper of the Robes in Queen Charlotte's court. Burney had arrived at court in July of 1786, a reluctant but devoted royal servant. She tried to adjust to the isolation and confinement of court, but by 1790 Burney was increasingly distraught and her health was in rapid decline. She suffered a romantic disappointment when the Queen's Vice-Chamberlain, Col. Stephen Digby, who had befriended her, married a maid of honour, Charlotte Gunning. She was also discouraged when her attempts to secure a headmastership at Charterhouse for her brother Charles, and a ship for her brother James, both failed. She was in a state of extended nervous exhaustion. Still, despite her debilitations, Burney continued to provide accounts of the Warren Hastings trial, made note of rumours about war with Spain, and occasionally made reference to the turmoil in France. She met James Boswell, encountered her estranged friend Hester Piozzi, and corresponded with Horace Walpole over the will of her servant Columb. She worked on her historical tragedies, Edwy and Elgiva , Herbert De Vere , The Siege of Pevensey , and Elberta , and she conceived her next novel, Camilla . Yet Burney was determined to leave court. After securing the approval of her father, she presented a letter of resignation to the queen in December, although it was not until early July of 1791 that she departed Windsor and returned to her life as an author.

She supplies exhaustive biographical information on the enormous cast of characters." -- Jane Darcy, The Times Literary Supplement, "Nancy E. Johnson's painstaking scholarship is evident in her transcription of many accidentally damaged or part-redacted manuscripts. She supplies exhaustive biographical information on the enormous cast of characters." -- Jane Darcy, The Times Literary Supplement "This sixth volume, covering Burney's final eighteen months at Court, shares the virtues of the first five: meticulous textual editing, full and informative annotation, detailed head notes, excellent contextual introduction, useful index, and beautiful presentation." -- Elaine Bander, Burney Letter, Nancy E. Johnson's painstaking scholarship is evident in her transcription of many accidentally damaged or part-redacted manuscripts. She supplies exhaustive biographical information on the enormous cast of characters.
