Maria Edgeworth wrote Harrington as an atonement and reparation for the stereotypical Jewish characters she described in her novels, after shereceived a letter from a Jewish-American Rachel Mordecai about herway of treating the Jew as “avaricious, treacherous and vindictive”villains. As an apology for the misrepresented portraits of the Jews,Edgeworth creates good Jewish characters in the figures of the generousand benevolent Montenero, his daughter Benenice, a woman whoembodies every virtue of an ideal feminine woman of the period, and anhonest and loyal peddler Jacob. While representing the Jewish figures assympathetic as well as idealized, Edgeworth transfers the negativestereotypical traits of the Jewish villains in her stories prior toHarrington into the characters from the English nobility and the Englishlow class such as Lord Mowbray and Harrington’s nurse Fowler.
Mowbray and Fowler embody the mean, vile, and fraudulenthard-heartedness, characteristics supposedly belonging to the Jews.
Edgeworth in Harrington discredits the party spirit and religiousintolerance practiced on the part of the English nobility and low-classpeople, while preaching the tolerance and liberality. However, her spiritof tolerance displayed in her phillo-Semitic descriptions of the good Jewish characters does not embrace the English nobility and the lowclass. By rendering them as reverted Jews, Edgeworth only projecting the Jewish stereotypes onto the English aristocrat and the low class people.
