	AustenBlog . . . she’s everywhere » A clever novelist
		Brunton and Austen were almost exact contemporaries and their novels, produced for the same readership, have more in common both superficially and at deeper levels than Austen’s brief remark about Nature and Probability might suggest.
		Though Brunton’s stories may to a modern eye look like Austen’s with added sex and violence, a contemporary might have thought of the comparison as working the other way round: Austen’s were like Brunton’s but with less of that.
		Brunton appears to have lost ground less because of her didacticism than because of the adult content of her novels.

		They offer variations on a stock plot in which a piously Christian, philanthropic heroine endures a series of adversities, from bereavement to poverty, with quiet dignity and unshakable faith, before achieving personal happiness in the home, the respectful deference of her community, and most importantly the promise of eternal reward.
		In Mary Ann Kelty’s Osmond (1822), for example, the heroine’s marriage proves to be less than satisfactory, and subsequently represents a critique of the system that forces a woman to marry before she fully knows her suitor.
		*Mary Ann Kelty’s experimental tales are of central importance to the Post-Austenian sub-genre.

		Austen’s evaluation is particularly unfair given that one of the delights of Brunton’s work is her ability to combine her adventurous plot-line with a tone of brisk, shrewd, humorous common sense.
		The same applies to Brunton’s heroine Laura, whose mingled sense of virtue and humility, reminiscent of Clarissa, is subjected to an omnipresent tone of irony, a tendency which becomes even more marked in Discipline, whose heroine is wayward, wilful, and fallible.
		Brunton’s description of Ellen traversing the shabby gentility of Edinburgh as a single, unaccompanied, young working woman still makes compelling reading.

		Mary Brunton's dedicates her novel Self-Control to Joanna Baillie, lamenting that they lived in 'an age of lax morality' in which religion and virtue no longer reign supreme.
		This a clear indication of the highly moralistic, Christian message of the novel, in which Christian morals triumph over the rake.
		As a comparison, if we think of a more canonical novel, such as Mansfield Park, it is clear that those who do not follow Christian principles, either on their estate at home or in the empire will get their just rewards, as Fanny, resisting the frivolity of theatrical representations, gets hers.
