Review

“A team of two dozen prominent scholars … .Here report on the state of the art in 18th century novel studies. Nearly all the work is cutting edge, and almost every page challenges conventional wisdom … .Specialists in the early novel will find this wide-ranging and theoretically sophisticated work provocative. Highly recommended.”
