The Origins of Regency Romance

The Regency era, spanning from 1811 to 1820, holds a significant place in British history. It marks the period in which King George III was declared unfit to rule due to his deteriorating mental health, and his son, the Prince of Wales, became the Prince Regent, ruling in his father's stead.

It was during this time that a unique cultural and societal shift occurred, setting the stage for the emergence of Regency romance novels. The Regency era saw the rise of a more liberal society, with a focus on elegance, fashion, and leisure activities, particularly in the upper classes.
