Summary
"Mr. Redruth begs the society's pardon, but he is not a magician at all... It is his daughter who is the magician. He has one son and three daughters and he says that they are all magicians. The others...[prefer] to pursue their studies privately at home without distractions."

Magic would be freed from the shackles that Gilbert Norrell had placed upon it!"
"From the Duke of Roxburghe's library: 'The Parliament of Women' was an allegorical sixteenth-century description of the wisdom and magic that belongs particularly to women."
