Recenzii
'[This book] provides a broad overview of the eighteenth-century novel’s increasing and changing moral legitimacy and makes gender politics a crucial part of this history.' English Studies 'A significant contribution to the study of the relations between Sterne’s fiction and his religious beliefs...' The Scriblerian 'Given its subject, literary scholars will be particularly interested in this book, but others whose interests span the history of ideas in eighteenth-century Britain should not overlook it either.' Notes and Queries
Descriere
Linking the decline in Church authority in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries with the increasing respectability of fiction, Carol Stewart provides a new perspective on the rise of the novel. The resulting readings of novels by authors such as Samuel Richardson, Sarah Fielding, Frances Sheridan, Charlotte Lennox, Tobias Smollett, Laurence Sterne, William Godwin, and Jane Austen shed light on the literary marketplace and the status of writers.
