A major study of letter-writing in the eighteenth century, this book
explores epistolary forms and practices in important areas of British
culture. Who wrote letters? Who read letters? What were the
conventions of letters and how were they understood? Each chapter
explores these questions in relation to a series of characters, including
men and women of letters, parents, lovers, criminals, citizens, travellers,
historians and Christians. Bringing together a wide range of epistolary
materials, both non-fictional and fictional, this original and important
study gives an extensively researched understanding of the central place
of letters in eighteenth-century writing, and a new way of looking at
eighteenth-century life. The book will be of immense value to literary
scholars and historians alike, and marks an important milestone in
eighteenth-century studies.
Clare Brant is Senior Lecturer in English at King s College London, UK.
She previously held posts at Oxford and Cambridge universities, has
co-edited three essay collections and published numerous articles on
eighteenth-century literature and culture.
