The major claim made by this study is that early
modern English prose fiction self-consciously
invented a new form of literary culture in which
professional writers created books to be printed and
sold to anonymous readers. It further claims that
this period's narrative innovations emerged nor
solely from changes in early modern culture like
print and the book market, but also from the
rediscovery of a forgotten late classical text from
North Africa, Heliodorus's Aethiopian History.
In making these claims, Steve Mcntz provides a
comprehensive historicist and formalist account of
prose romance, the most important genre of
Elizabethan fiction. He explores how authors and
publishers of prose fiction in late sixteenth-century
England produced boob that combined traditional
narrative forms with a dynamic new understanding
of the relationship between text and
Though prose fiction would not dominate English
literary culture until the eighteenth century, Mentz
demonstrates that the form began to invent itsdf as
a distinct literary kind in England nearly two
centuries earlier.
Examining the divergent but interlocking careers
Robert Greene, Sir Philip Sidney. Thomas Lodge,
and Thomas Nashe, Mentz traces how through
differing commitments to print culture and their
respective engagements with Hcliodoran romance,
these authors helped make the genre ot prose fiction
culturally and economically viable in England.
Mentz explores how the advent of print and the
book market changed
new conceptions ot what he calls 'middlebrow
narrative and new habits of reading and writing.
This study draws together three important strains of
current scholarly inquiry- the history of the book
and print culture, the study or popular fiction, and
the re-examination of genre and influence. It also
connects early modern fiction with longer histories
or prose fiction and the rise of the modern novel. |
