| dc.description.abstract | This note describes the erotic prose work, The Ghost of Moll King; or a Night at Derry’s (1761) and identifies it as a piece of Sterneana. We detail its allusions to Tristram Shandy and outline The Ghost of Moll King’s close association with the notorious catalogue of London sex workers, Harris’s List of Covent-Garden Ladies (1760–94). We outline a potential connection between The Ghost of Moll King and The Clockmakers Outcry (1760) through the probable common publication link of Joseph Burd. We conclude by observing allusions to Tristram Shandy in Harris’s List. | en |
