OverviewExcerpt from Mrs. Montagu, 1720-1800: An Essay Proposed as a Thesis to the Faculty of Letters of the University of Paris IT is well known that, between 1750 and 1790, a group of remarkable women emulated in London the example given them in Paris by Mmes du Tencin, du Deffand, and Geoffrin, and instituted assemblies, whence card-playing was excluded for the sake of literary conversation. Among these ladies, familiarly nicknamed Blue Stockings, the leading spirit undoubtedly was Mrs Montagu, the subject of this Essay.
