Deploying the concept of “haunting,” the article reads the scene against theatrical history. It further argues that the scene introduces weightier concerns about what it means for Burney’s characters to “perform” themselves. With Dror Wahrman’s account of the rise of the modern self as an anchor, I contend that Burney’s novel implicitly questions how individual subjectivity is best stabilized and publically presented as unified, immutable, and non-fungible, especially when the “ghost” of other more performative versions of the self threaten to destabilize that effort. Lastly, the essay reads the privileging of the non-performative self (best embodied in Camilla’s sister Eugenia) as a sign that the novel is also invested in the notion of a “true” worth that is incontrovertible and fixed, one that is removed simultaneously from the vagaries of the stage and the marketplace.","PeriodicalId":366404,"journal":{"name":"Restoration and Eighteenth-Century Theatre Research","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123107082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First produced at Covent Garden in 1793, the play reflects London back to itself in ways that question the moral fiber of “this civilized city.” The play was offered in postcolonial America a year later, in the wake of a devastating influx of yellow fever and for the patriotic cause of relieving and redeeming American citizens suffering as captives in Algiers. Under such circumstances, politically charged elements of Every One Has His Fault took on more potent meaning.\u0000 Though Inchbald herself rejected the charge of sedition that her play prompted from conservative parties, Every One Has His Fault obtained a life of its own in post-revolutionary America, where a perspective emboldened by distance and independence could critique the land in which the play was born. This discussion of its afterlife in America highlights the play’s core values of moral attentiveness and governance, illuminates its latent radicalism, and recognizes the transformative power of a change in production venue from a theatre venerated in a land of oppression to one newly opened in the land of the free.","PeriodicalId":366404,"journal":{"name":"Restoration and Eighteenth-Century Theatre Research","volume":"397 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120875491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
