The exploration of women's roles in the eighteenth-century property debate is central to this study, highlighting how contemporary novels presented diverse and often conflicting views on women's relationship to property. April London analyzes various authors, including Samuel Richardson and Clara Reeve, revealing interpretations that range from equating women with objects to nuanced discussions of possession for those lacking full civic status. This comprehensive examination underscores the significance of gender in the literary landscape of the period.
