Percy: A Tragedy

Hannah More's novel 'Percy' is a classic work of literature that delves into themes of morality, social class, and the struggles of the human condition. Written in a formal and eloquent style typical of the 18th century, More's work is a prime example of the moralistic literature popular during her time. Set against the backdrop of English society, 'Percy' follows the journey of the titular character as he navigates the pitfalls of ambition and the consequences of his choices. More's adept storytelling weaves a compelling narrative that captivates readers and prompts reflection on their own values and beliefs. Hannah More, a prominent writer, poet, and social reformer, drew on her own experiences and observations of English society to create 'Percy'. As an advocate for education and philanthropy, More brought a unique perspective to her writing, infusing her work with a sense of purpose and social commentary. 'Percy' is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that will resonate with readers interested in exploring the complexities of human nature and the moral dilemmas that shape our lives.
