Present in all that's said about her: Manley's half-fictional autobiography
Delarivier "Delia" Manley[1] (1663 or c. 1670 – 24 July 1724) was an English author, playwright, and political pamphleteer. Manley is sometimes referred to, with Aphra Behn and Eliza Haywood, as one of "the fair triumvirate of wit", which is a later attribution.
Some outdated sources list her first name as Mary, but recent scholarship has demonstrated that to be an error: Mary was the name of one of her sisters, and she always referred to herself as Delarivier or Delia.[2]
^Sometimes spelt Delariviere, Delarivière or de la Rivière.
