Publisher Description: Astrea is the name Aphra Behn (1640-1689) used as a spy and with which she signed some of her works. The disinhibition in his private relationships, which were soon made public, the treatment of sexuality and the active and independent role of the protagonists of his works brought him numerous criticisms and scandals as well as the necessary influence to satisfy his economic interest. Not in vain can she be considered the first professional English writer, working as a playwright, poet, novelist and translator. |
