Emma Parker
Emma Parker (''fl'' 1809–1817), was a novelist residing in Wales and writing in English, of whom very little is known.
==Works==
Emma Parker seems to have been an Anglican, and an impoverished member of the gentry class, who lived alone in Denbighshire, at Fairfield House. This was named after a family in her first novel, ''A Soldier's Offspring, or, The Sisters'' (1809), which she submitted to Minerva Press, specialists in sentimental and Gothic fiction, in the hope of earning some money. It was dedicated to her unnamed mother. It features a pair of sisters, one sensible, one flighty.
Parker went on to write six more novels: ''Elfrida; or, the Heiress of Belgrove'' (1810), ''Fitz-Edward, or, The Cambrians'' (1811), ''Virginia; or the Peace of Amiens'' (1811), ''Aretas'' (1813), ''The Guerrilla Chief'' (1815), and the epistolary ''Self-Deception'' (1816). She also published a volume of essays: ''Important Trifles: Chiefly Appropriate to Females on their Entrance into Society'' (1817). The date of her death is not known.
According to the Canadian scholar Isobel Grundy, "Parker's work, always intelligent, became more interesting as her career progressed. Her conduct book demonstrates learning and advocates religious belief and strong-mindedness. Her novels often touch on political and military matters, on the hardships of soldiers and the difficulties of readjusting to civilian life. ''Self-Deception'' (a novel set after the marriage of the hero and heroine) explores the cultural and religious differences between English and French life."〔ODNB entry by Isobel Grundy.(Retrieved 13 August 2012.
