	§9. Robert Bage: "Hermsprong". XIII. The Growth of the Later Novel. Vol. 11. The Period of the French Revolution. ...
		Robert Bage, the last of this quartette, is differentiated from them by the fact that he is not unfrequently amusing, while the others seldom succeed in causing amusement.
		Bage, a quaker who became a free-thinker, was an active man of business, and did not take to novel-writing till he was advanced in life.
		Bage, in fact, when he leaves revolutionary politics and ethics on one side, and indulges what Scott did not scruple to call his “genius,” can give us people who are more of this world than the folk of almost any of his contemporaries in novel-writing, except Fanny Burney earlier, and Maria Edgeworth later.

		Robert Bage's Hermsprong satirizes English society of the 1790s targeting, in particular, corrupt clergymen, grasping lawyers and wicked aristocrats.
		While such satire might seem conventional enough, Hermsprong is distinguished from other political novels of the period by its comedy, and it is a measure of Bage's success that he won the admiration of writers as different in political outlook as Mary Wollstonecraft and Sir Walter Scott.
		The appendices are useful, including contemporary reviews, Bage's own thoughts on novel writing, and material relating to perceptions of America in the eighteenth century.
