商品簡介
The "long 18th century" is the period under consideration. Editors Gottlieb (English, Oregon State U.) and Shields (English, U. of Washington), who are also contributors, introduce the broad themes of this collection and give background on the era's transformations with regard to nature, demographics, economics, culture, and worldview. Ten contributions address obscurity and open secrets in Scots vernacular poetry; graves, localism, and literary heritage; the gothic novel; the translocal poetics of William and Anna Maria Jones; and Austen's and Mitford's English idylls, among other topics.
