Charlotte Palmer (about 1762 – 1834 or after) was a British teacher and writer who was mentioned in the Dictionary of National Biography.[1] She published a small number of novels.

Life

Palmer is estimated to have been born in 1762, she came to notice with a five-volume epistolary novel called Female Stability; or the History of Miss Belville, which was published in 1780. The preface to the book confusingly says that it was written by "a sister" who has since died. Despite this comment, two more works were published during the 1790s. These books were Letters on several subjects from a preceptress to her pupils who have left school in 1791, and A Newly-Invented Copybook in 1797. Both were aimed at the educational market and the latter came with an apology from a woman to the "superior" gender of schoolteachers.[2]

Her two other works were Integrity and Content: an Allegory and intriguingly It Is and It Is Not a Novel, which were both published in 1792. An account of the latter was included in The Novel: An Alternative History, 1600–1800, which was published in 2002.[3]

Palmer continued to operate schools, but was arrested for debt. In time she cleared the debt and was last identified in 1834.[2]
