Recenzii
'… Revising the Eighteenth-Century Novel persuasively delivers on its premises and also recommends a novel tool that scholars will likely find valuable in their reconstruction of physically impaired manuscripts.' A. W. Lee, Choice
'This study's careful attention to a massive archive makes it a valuable piece of scholarship … Richardson, Burney, Austen, and Edgeworth were each prolific writers and Havens' thorough coverage of all four is a service to the field … [and] because of its accessible focus on themes of gendered (dis)empowerment in the lives and works of its canonical figures, I can pay this study the tribute, rarer than it should be, of saying that I expect to recommend it to undergraduates …' Jacob Sider Jost, The Eighteenth-century intelligencer
'Hilary Havens's Revising the Eighteenth-Century Novel: Authorship from Manuscript to Print is another important intervention in the history of both the novel and ideas of authorship … Havens has recovered previously hidden evidence about revision using digital palaeography - a powerful and fruitful new technology.' David Womersley, SEL Studies in English Literature 1500–1900
'Revising the Eighteenth-Century Novel is a valuable contribution to our understanding of how the genre emerged and how authors crafted their texts in a social world over time … The real impact of Revising the Eighteenth-Century Novel is its central argument: that novels were the creation of many people and many influences, that even in their printed form they should not be considered textually stable or 'final,' and that all literary scholars need to be more aware of the influences that created the text that they are reading and more open to the idea that those influences may have contradicted the initial intent of the author.' Leah Orr, Reception: Texts, Readers, Audiences, History
'With careful structuring, and a mostly lucid style, this industrious book claims new insights into the 'networks' that, via Bruno Latour, are already well established as significant in this field.' Min Wild, Times Literary Supplement
'… this is essentially an interpretative, critical book … This is a rewarding study, one to argue with and learn from.' Aileen Douglas, Eighteenth-Century Fiction
