About Charlotte Turner Smith

Charlotte Smith was an English novelist and poet of the School of Sensibility whose Elegiac Sonnets (1784) contributed to the revival of the form in England. She also helped to set conventions for Gothic fiction and wrote political novels of sensibility. Despite eleven novels, four children's books and other works, she saw herself mainly as a poet and expected to be remembered for that.
