An Essay on the Art of Ingeniously Tormenting

Perhaps the first extended non-fiction prose satire written by an English woman, Jane Collier's An Essay on the Art of Ingeniously Tormenting is a wickedly satirical send-up of eighteenth-century advice manuals and educational tracts. This Broadview edition uses the first edition, the only edition published during the author's lifetime.
