APPENDIX
1 (Harriet Martineau Series)
The various didactic fictional works written
by Martineau in serial form have been recorded in this Appendix
separately, in order to provide a suitable overview of the
development of the various series that she wrote during
this period. No attempt, however, has been made to record
individually details of catalogue entries and further editions/translations
of the constituent works, as this information is generally
incomplete and often unclear. Instead, catalogue and edition
details have been provided for the series as wholes.

the title of this story is too grand for its contents; and
more may be disappointed on finding how few are my personages,
and how little I have dealt with the horrors of the time.—The
purpose of my title is to direct the work into the hands
of those whom it most concerns; and my personages are few
because it is my object to show, in a confined space, how
long a series of evils may befall individuals in a society
conducted like that of Ireland […] As for the incidents
of the tale, my choice was influenced by the consideration,
not of what would best suit the purposes of fiction, but
of what would most serve the cause of the Irish poor. A
much more thrilling and moving story might have been made
of conspiracy, rebellion, and slaughter by weapon and by
gibbet; but theses scenes want no further development than
may be found in our daily newspapers’ (p. ii). ‘Summary
