<dc:description id="description">Four generations of an aristocratic Anglo-Irish family settle on their family estate in eighteenth-century Ireland.</dc:description>
<meta id="long-description" property="se:long-description" refines="#description">
&lt;p&gt;In eighteenth-century Ireland, a privileged class of Anglo-Irish landowners known as the “Protestant Ascendancy” lived on great estates, with the mostly Catholic Irish as their tenants and servants.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In eighteenth-century Ireland, a privileged class of Anglo-Irish landowners known as the “Protestant Ascendancy” lived on great estates, with the mostly-Catholic Irish as their tenants and servants.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/maria-edgeworth"&gt;Maria Edgeworth&lt;/a&gt; was part of this Anglo-Irish aristocracy. &lt;i&gt;Castle Rackrent&lt;/i&gt;, her best known novel, satirizes the failures and follies of her Anglo-Irish peers, their mismanagement of their estates, and their abuse of their Irish tenants.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The narrator of &lt;i&gt;Castle Rackrent&lt;/i&gt; is Thady Quirk, whose family has served on the Rackrent estate for generations. Thady relates the life stories of four successive lords of Castle Rackrent and how their individual character and personality affect the lives and families that depend on them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Castle Rackrent&lt;/i&gt; was one of the first historical novels written in English, and &lt;a href="https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/walter-scott"&gt;Walter Scott&lt;/a&gt; later cited it as inspiration for his own Scottish historical novels.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edgeworth included two sets of explanatory notes on aspects of Irish life and culture for her English readers, footnotes in the main text and a “glossary” added in the second edition. In this edition both are included as hyperlinked endnotes, with notes from the glossary marked.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edgeworth included two sets of explanatory notes on aspects of Irish life and culture for her English readers, footnotes in the main text and a “glossary” added in the second edition. These have been merged into a single set of endnotes in this Standard Ebooks edition.&lt;/p&gt;

<meta property="se:production-notes">Most edition of Castle Rackrent contain two sets of notes: footnotes included with the first edition, and endnotes, called by Edgeworth a glossary, added for the second edition. This Standard Ebooks edition includes both sets of notes as endnotes; as a result, in a few cases where Edgeworth included both a footnote and a glossary entry, there are two notes in this edition for a single term in the main text.</meta>
