Autor

Madeline Leslie, born Harriette Newell Woods (1815 - 1893), was a prolific 19th-century American author known for her moral and religious tales for children and adults. Primarily focused on didactic storytelling that catered to the domestic and moral values of her era, Leslie's writing was aimed at instilling virtues in young readers. Her narratives often centered around the Protestant ethic, with an emphasis on charity, hard work, and piety. In 'Cora and The Doctor; or, Revelations of A Physician's Wife', she explores themes of personal integrity and social responsibility in a medical and marital context. This novel, like many of her works, affords readers a glimpse into the intimate sphere of Victorian home life, touching on the roles and expectations of women at the time. Leslie's stories frequently dealt with the inner workings of family life, the qualities of good character, and the cause-and-effect relationship between one's actions and their moral repercussions. Although her name may not be as widely recognized as some of her contemporaries, Leslie's contributions to children's literature and her influence on the teaching of morals through storytelling have cemented her place as a significant figure within the annals of American literary history. Her endeavors consistently reflected the ethos of her age and sought to guide the moral compass of her readers through carefully crafted narrative experiences.
