Focusing on the interplay between reading habits and literary genres in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Kate Loveman analyzes works by notable authors like Defoe, Swift, Richardson, and Fielding. She uncovers a forgotten critical discourse that highlights how both authors and readers engaged with and critiqued fiction. This insightful exploration provides a fresh perspective on Restoration and eighteenth-century literature, particularly in relation to the evolution of the novel and its political implications.
