James Fenimore Cooper
Many of Cooper's writings focused on the American frontier. He often wrote about Native American life especially in his Leatherstocking Tales. He also wrote sea novels as well as the historical novel "History of the Navy of the United States of America".
Mark Twain is well-known for his writing about American life, but not for introducing the sea. He did introduce the Mississippi River. Herman Melville is most widely known for introducing the sea in his novel, Moby D__.

Explanation:
The passage here presents multiple instances of disapproval of Countess Olenska's behavior
- <u>the narrator calls her a compromised woman</u>, essentially, one of a loose character.
- <u>questions her going outside in the' shopping hour</u>', that is, when she has a chance of meeting men outside.
- <u>her absence when the betrothed couple comes is presented as a relief.</u> She is either ill mannered or her family is ashamed of having her around.
It is evident that the Countess here is being judged on impossible standards.
