	Charlotte Turner Smith
		Smith's contemporary prominence as both a novelist and a poet is particularly significant, since most Romantic-era authors are not known for having achieved notable success in multiple genres.
		Smith's works - regardless of their genre - were also famous (or notorious) for their highly personal and autobiographical prefaces, in which Smith aired her grievances over the personal and professional indignities to which she was subjected.
		Today, Smith is widely studied - and taught - in institutions of higher learning around the world, and the scholarship on her work is rapidly increasing both in quantity and in intellectual and cultural substance.

	The Literary Gothic \| Charlotte Smith
		Smith herself wrote, in a letter to a friend who had suggested she include more botanical imagery in her work (botany being an extremely fashionable "pop science" of the very late C18), that "I have not forgotten (being still compelled to write, that my family may live) your hint of introducing botany into a novel.
		Not directly concerned with Smith's "Gothicism," this essay does address some of the Romantic aspects of Smith's poetry, particularly her social and political concerns.

		Charlotte Turner Smith (1749-1806) was one of the most popular writers of the 1780s and 1790s and an influential contributor to the Revolution controversy in Britain.
		Smith's contribution to the development of the British novel is indisputable: her Gothic romances Emmeline (1788), Ethelinde (1789), and Celestina (1791) are among the first examples of a feminine genre which fused narratives of persecution with lyrical landscape description.
		Smith's most accomplished novel, The Old Manor House (1793), is a classic prototype of the condition-of-England novel, later perfected in the works of her admirer Jane Austen; while the remarkable characterization of intractable old Mrs.

		As she ran through the ‘trash’ of the circulating library, little could the eleven-year Charlotte Turner have imagined that she was to become one of the best-known poets and novelists of the late eighteenth century.
		Smith frequently alluded to her own trials and tribulations in the prefaces to her poems and plots of her novels and was both praised and criticised for this strategy.
		Anna Seward, for example, found Smith’s dramatisation of her own life in her writing deeply improper and unfeminine, lampooning Smith for what she perceived as the improper washing of her dirty laundry in public and characterised her sonnets as ‘everlasting lamentables [and] hackneyed scraps of dismality’.

	David Miller's Analyis: Charlotte Smith
		Smith colorfully uses all the flowers that spring offers and intertwines them in her text and draws comparisons between humanity and the spring garden.
		Smith in particular does this by overstating the obvious in the literal garden, and the comparative nuances of literation clearly provide not only an outlet for the writer but also for the reader.
		Charlotte Smith's likeable writing style was not accidental; it is deliberate and evocative, and shows her unique direction of self.

	Sample Poetry Report
		Smith draws on this personal experience, and others, as she empathizes with the French emigrants: "Pensive I took my solitary way, / Lost in despondence, while contemplating / Not my own wayward destiny alone, / (Hard as it is, and difficult to bear!) / But in beholding the unhappy lot of the lorn Exiles.
		Smith compassionately connects with these emigrants and, throughout the poem, seamlessly blends her own memories with those of the emigrants.
		This imagery has an anticipatory role for it is reflective of both Smith's internal mood as well as the mood of the emigrants, which are both expounded upon as the poem progresses.
