dc.description.abstractThis thesis project investigates the ways in which one woman's life was transformed during, and as a result of, her journey through Italy in the late eighteenth century. Hester Thrale Piozzi was an iconoclast who challenged the definition in which British society cast her. As a literary dissenter, she opens a window for us onto the limiting expectations; yet true opportunities, for courageous women in Georgian England.en_US
