The New Atalantis is a novel written by Mary de la Riviere Manley, also known as Mrs. Manley. It was first published in 1709 and is considered to be a work of political satire and social commentary. The story is set in a fictional island called Atalantis, which is ruled by women and is presented as a utopian society. The novel follows the journey of a young man named Jack, who travels to Atalantis and experiences the culture and politics of the island. Through Jack's observations and interactions with the women of Atalantis, the novel explores themes of gender roles, power dynamics, and societal norms. The New Atalantis is a significant work in the history of feminist literature and is still studied and analyzed today for its insights into gender and society.Let us go, let us go for ever, said she, sobbing, my Lord Duke, I wish your Eminence all Happiness, wretched Charlot shall never disturb it. Farewel, my dear Countess, I was not born to taste the Sweets of Love and Friendship: Here she hasted out of the Room, and got into the Coach that waited, without taking her Leave in Form, either of the one or the other. They made after her to the Gate; she briskly order'd the Coachman to drive on, and with six good Horses was presently out of sight.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
