In the first collection devoted to mentoring relationships in
British literature and culture, the editor and contributors offer a
fresh lens through which to observe familiar and lesser known
authors and texts. Employing a variety of critical and
methodological approaches, which reflect the diversity of the
mentoring experiences under consideration, the collection
highlights in particular the importance of mentoring in expanding
print culture. Topics include John Wilmot the Earl of Rochester's
relationships to a range of role models, John Dryden's mentoring of
women writers, Alexander Pope's problematic attempts at mentoring,
the vexed nature of Jonathan Swift's cross-gender and cross-class
mentoring relationships, Samuel Richardson's largely unsuccessful
efforts to influence Urania Hill Johnson, and an examination of
Elizabeth Carter and Samuel Johnson's as co-mentors of one
another's work. Taken together, the essays further the case for
mentoring as a globally operative critical concept, not only in the
eighteenth century, but in other literary periods as well.
