To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
BLUESTOCKINGS AS AUTHORS 173 To Mrs. Montagu (patron of letters) she was an indul- gent preceptress, a very Pierian source of learning, and much that passed as erudition in the 'female Maecenas' was in reality derived at second-hand from Mrs. Carter. Mrs. Montagu was never unwilling to sit at the feet of the woman whose reading ranged from Aristotle to Petrarch and from Diodorus Siculus to the Sorrows of Werther, ^ who would correspond with her respecting the Newtonian mechanics or the Stoic ph...ilosophers.
Mrs. Carter's reputation was made by a translation of the extant works of Epictetus, an elegant quarto put forth in 1758, provided with an introduction and ample notes. The style of the translation is, in a very high degree, chaste and pleasing, and nowhere suggests the line-by-line method of the laborious translator. The introductory essay is an admirable exposition of the Stoic philosophy. The following specimen may show that Mrs. Carter was capable not only of a spirited style, but of geniune critical treatment of her subject : About the generality of mankind, the Stoics do not appear to have given themselves any kind of trouble.
