Abstract:This essay examines the relationship between (dis)ability and sexuality in Maria Edgeworth’s Belinda (1801). Jason Farr argues that (dis)ability and sexuality are “mutually constitutive” in the eighteenth century and demonstrates the link between conceptions of (dis)ablebodiedness and non-heteronormativity. I argue that the constitutive relationship is bifurcated across two characters from Edgeworth’s novel: Harriet Freke’s sexual divergence constitutes her disability, and Lady Delacour’s experience of disability and chronic pain constitutes her sexual ambiguity and Sapphic possibilities. A queer-crip reading of Belinda demonstrates that Lady Delacour experiences intimate relationships with women and her husband through her injured breast and chronic pain. Harriet Freke’s divergent gender performance disables her under the chastising gaze of the other characters, and, in the end, she is permanently, physically marked by an injury. Lady Delacour experiences a cure of her long-term injury that results in a transformation to the ennobled, contemporary form of heterosexual domesticity.

Abstract:This essay considers Thomas Amory’s Memoirs of the Lives of Several Ladies of Great Britain (1755) and The Life and Opinions of John Buncle, Esq. (1756) as experiments in the novel form. Amory’s novels flout many of the genre’s central conventions—like plot and character development—and instead present a deluge of facts, theories, and natural historical and antiquarian descriptions. I argue that these novels offer a peculiar sort of formal or fictional realism that attends not to particular people or places but to the general impressions of objects and ideas. In light of William Stukeley’s antiquarianism, which includes a model for what I label an “ecstatic epistemology” that affectively registers a general sense of the whole in excess of a ruin’s fragments, I read the formal peculiarities of Amory’s novels as a means for producing knowledge about the forms of ideas. By attaching feelings to these ideas—feelings that range from boredom to sublimity— Amory’s novels can give us the general sense of their form.
