Dorothea Du Bois
-
Standard Name: Du Bois, Dorothea
Birth Name: Dorothea Annesley
Married Name: Dorothea Du Bois
's traumatic family romance made her a writer with an obsession. Her father's guilt and her mother's victimhood recur throughout her works: poems, plays, novel, legal statement—everything but her edited anthology. But she is a lively, vigorous, and versatile eighteenth-century writer, with strong feminist and Irish feeling.
