Duty And Affection: A Tale (1850) is a novel written by Gustav Moritz. The story is set in the early nineteenth century and centers around the life of a young woman named Emily, who is torn between her sense of duty and her desire for affection. Emily is raised in a strict household by her father, who expects her to marry a wealthy and respectable man. However, Emily falls in love with a poor artist named Edward, who is not deemed suitable by her father. Emily is torn between her love for Edward and her sense of duty to her father and society. The novel explores the themes of duty, love, and societal expectations, and the conflict between these forces. The story is a poignant and emotional tale of a woman's struggle to find happiness in a world that is bound by rigid social norms and expectations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
