Bowie State University Maria Edgeworths Preface Reflection Paper

 

must read the source that I assigned below ONLY. outside sources that I don’t provide are not accepted and I will request a refund.!! i need it literature not summary . its a literature class

Like John Newbery and like the anonymous translator who wrote the Preface to Berquin’s The Children’s Friend, Edgeworth knew that she had to sell her book FIRST to a child’s parents since the parents are the purchasers. Describe three things she does in the Preface to “close the deal” with an adult purchaser.

But Edgeworth also wants children to look forward to her stories as a pleasing way to learn a lesson. What techniques will she use to make the reader interested in each story?
